No, the above figure is email service *availability* (which seemed most relevant here) and not the host *uptime* which most sites state publicly - that's 99.96% and the 2h downtime so far was mostly due to a disk changeover and testing.
I did read that and I have parsed it correctly, if the service isn't available it's down. Therefore, it is what I would class as downtime, if my email wasn't accessible for 2 days this year (potentially in one lump!, this isn't clear) I'd be looking at other options. If the non-availability was a few minutes here and there then it's not so bad.
