FTH responded to a change in Gmail behavior

Some club's will find some of their member email addresses were replaced by the 'noemail' placeholder. This was caused by a change at Gmail and FTH has made the necessary adjustments to restore function. Affected clubs will need to restore their member's email address. If there is a bounce count error with the address please let us know on the forums.

Why do FreeToastHost websites keep going down for hours at a time?

Dear Support folks,

Lately, the Toastmasters Clubs served with websites by FreeToatHost have been going down for hours at a time. I can't say all of them obviously, but all that I routinely access, including our own, are doing this - in concert.

What seems to be the problem?

Best regards,

John Williams, VPE and Admin, Hi-Noon Toastmasters Club #3963

1) websites go down

2) the world of the internet is under constant attack

3) Even the big boys like banks, government, airlines all experience website down time

4) it takes time to find each cause of a failure.

5) the outages lately have been caused by 2 FTH websites being hit hard by a DDOS attacks.
Thank you,
