This same type of outage has been happening during the daytime hours on various days for at least a month. It seems that Verizon is trying to merge their different sites together and are locking the system down. So the system will come back up late this afternoon and stay up until another day when they make another attempt at merging. Meanwhile, they don't understand how critical it is when access to email is lost. Verizon should roll out a schedule of when they will be working on the system and that there may be a chance that the system will go down.

Since verizon hasn't posted anything yet, I figure I would do it.
It appears that the verizon.net email is having significant problems today (21 April). It appears that access to your verizon.net email account is sporadic at best. This includes accessing it through the verizon webpage or with a third-party email program (like Outlook). This failure has been ongoing since this morning (~ 10 AM Eastern time) and continues (current time is 1:30 PM Eastern Time). Based on a review of posts on this forum, it appears widespread. I live in the Baltimore/DC area and I've seen other posts from Texas, Florida and California.
