i think its due to the slow internet caused by the cable cut. i am also having such problems with some of the sites.

u r firewall is blocking Port 80 thats why you can open and view rediffmail but cannot check your inbox

if you are using Kaspersky Internet Security
go to
Settings > Network Settings > Port Settings
and uncheck Port 80

or if you are using any other Antivirus/Firewall
than let us know :D

think 100 times before you say. if he was blocking port 80 how could he visit other sites ? huh this is very silly. you mean to say that all other sites are operating on a non standard port 8080 or something else ? huh

yes Kaspersky blocks rediffmail .. I had to turn off firewall to check rediffmail (now I dont use rediffmail anymore :p ),but never found a solution before satyamy posted the solution :p , Thanks for the solution satyamy :)

@satyamy,
I too have been facing the problem recently and I did not correlate it to the recent installation of KIS 7 until this post... Thanks for helping me sort it out...

^^ The above solution also seems to work for me... I reset KIS to monitor port 80 and unchecked the /bn/ option in the anti-banner... This works too...

Thanks...

Thanks satyamy for pointing to the cause of the problem... i.e. Kaspersky
i use Kaspersky Internet Security 7.0 ...
was quite worried abt how the problem could be solved...
thanx s1800rpm for pointing to the workaround...
To solve the problem, under KIS settings, enable anti-banner, in the white list i just added
*f1mail.rediff* [since the hyperlink shows f1mail while trying to open inbox] and it worked...
got to view rediff mails after a long time... :)
