What they are told in this case is "Any Technical Matters To Come Through David"
Complaints abound that a set of email accounts are no longer working.
Investigation shows that the domain name has not been paid and is suspended.
Go to 'Go Daddy' (for it is they) to try to pay and have it reinstated.
Go Daddy say that I need to have the access password, which is not written down.
I find out that the domain name was requested by a company that was asked to provide a webspace by one of our no longer with us employees.
So I try to call the webspace company to get the details so that I can go back to Go Daddy to get the domain name paid for again.
The company that the employee who no longer works for us used has gone into administration and is not able to help, as no-one knows who set it up, where the records are or how to organise a piss-up in a brewery.
I am vexed.
Fortunately the domain name will soon be out of registration completely so I will be able to buy it back and point it to a new webspace.
But until then...
No emails, no online presence and a bag full of sh*t for David.
Sometimes I hate my job.

and what was the name of the domain again?
I will never again mention that Dalek Dave was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel.

My favorite in a tale like this is when the admin buys <somedomian.com> and creates admin@somedomain.com for the email account, and then goes and modifies all of the registrations stuff to point there. Then something happens and all attempts to communicate go to <email@somedomain.com> where no one can get access.
I spent a few months doing the help side for a hosting company. Hated that call about once a week where I had to tell the person that I cannot help you because you cannot manage your accounts.
Although it was always much worse when the company had a blowup with the contractor that set it all up and I had to tell them, go rebuild the bridge you just burned so you can get the password you need. Especially because those contractors were always 'crooks' and much worse. 
Good luck getting it all put back together soon.

Heading to Zion Nat. park on the way.
Can't believe the month is almost done, done a lot and had a great time but am ready to get home. Have over 2K photos to process.
Along with Antimatter and Dark Matter they've discovered the existence of Doesn't Matter which appears to have no effect on the universe whatsoever!

OK, you might say that I'm oversensitive, but I'm freaking out right now!
My collegue sitting right in front of me just came in ½ hour later than me. He brought breakfast. A sandwich in a plastic wrapper and a can of Coke. The plastic wrapper makes a hell of a noise, the coke can makes a lot of noise, and he eats and drinks very noisily. This normally goes on for around 15 minutes until he very noisily throws the wrapper and the can in the waste paper basket.
Why the HELL can't he eat his breakfast at home or at the lunch table in the office kitchen instead of by his work station???

There is an upside too, mind you: After the breakfast, he goes to the toilet (presumably very noisily, but THAT I wouldn't know!) and is gone for around ½ hour (A bliss of silence for me!  )
