First...no, the client doesnt even know how to ftp, let alone the control panel

So I know that's not the case. I looked further into this. They left the MYSQL database intact, so I can retrieve the email list...that was my biggest concern, so Im happy there. But they deleted the entire contents of the site files. This almost makes me feel like I've been violated or something

(ok, it's really not funny). I sent a support ticket about the Ginger server not sending or recieving emails (you can see I posted about it here, below this post that no one answered). The techs said they upgraded the Ginger server and that it should be working now (yesterday or today)...yeah, that worked, but then my client just sent out his newsletter and this happens. He got an email saying...
Your account had over 400 emails per hour sent from it within the past hour, causing high load on the server and instability for all customers on it due to this. When this happens that you go over the allowed emails per hour, the message bounces back to your administrative account, creating a loop of messages attempting to send then constantly bouncing back.
Again...he said normally it sends back a message that 800 is the limit because he has over 1,000 subscribers. Sooo, although we got the Ginger server email back to working...now they turned around and disabled his newsletter and deleted all the files in the folder without notice. It's creaping me out that you give the support team your login and passwords to get one thing fixed, but they take upon themselves to use it to go in and delete anything they want and or delete stuff that is not harmful in anyway.
edited to say...yes, the client is now aware that he needs to only send out so many at a time...but to delete stuff is not acceptable. He get's it that he needs to only send out so many at a time now...but there is alot confliction going on here. You say only 300 can go out, he gets back only 800 can go out last month, then today he gets 400 can only go out. I repeat, he gets that 1,000 is messing up the server...but to not let him know the
correct amount and to just delete stuff is unacceptable.
