Less e-Mail Space Brings More Woes To Brunei Users
By Laila Rahman

Bandar Seri Begawan - It is a tight squeeze on e-mail space for BruNet users. Many users have been complaining of mails not been received because of the low capacity of e-mail space mails available. This has caused considerable distress to BruNet clients particularly the business people and frequents users. The Bulletin contacted a telecommunication staff member about the current situation.

She explained that the reason for the small size of the e-mail box was the badly affected Internet provider system that could not be fed with more data. She said the BruNet is trying to stabilize and repair the system.

She said BruNet users would currently have 2 MB e-mails boxes compared to unlimited space, which they were provided with before.

She took the opportunity to advise all BruNet users to check their e-mails regularly, and not to subscribe to web sites that they are not familiar with as to have more space in their e-mail boxes. She said spamming is one of aspects that have been affecting Internet systems worldwide.

She also explained that most of the current users do not check their e-mail boxes thus some big e-mails they receive are too large to fit in their mailboxes. BruNet has warned users to delete unwanted e-mails so as to create more space in their e-mail boxes.

She said BruNet would soon issue an advisory regarding the situation for public information. If users have any enquires about problems with BruNet, they should contact the customer service unit, she added. (Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin)
