Domain On Hold

Apparently, the hatch.org domain was erroneously marked as being “On Hold” last night.

So if you sent mail to me @ hatch.org in the last few days it probably bounced.

Although, neither I nor Register.com as been able to determine why this happened (the domain did not expired). The very cordial and responsive Register.com support person told me they have corrected the problem, but since the “On Hold” status has already propagated, it’ll be roughly 24-72 hours before the domain appears active to the net.

Sux!

I wouldn’t be surprised if the evil customer hating NetSol had something to do with the outage, even though I transferred the hatch.org domain to Register.com nearly two years ago from Network Solutions (VeriSign).

Of course, I have no empirical evidence of this; I’m simply a dissatisfied customer.
