View Article  System Reboot Necessary
We will be rebooting one of our main web servers today (11:00 a.m. PDT) to take advantage of an additional processor in the computer. I expect that system to be down for appx. 15 minutes, from shutdown to fully active web serving. Email will also be delayed during this time period. The additional processor will significantly increase the speed and reliability of the system.

UPDATE: Everything appears to have gone smoothly. We got started just a few minutes later than expected and had down time of appx 15 minutes. Thanks all for your patience!
View Article  Moving Email Today
We'll be moving our primary email server to a faster machine today. This will cause POP3 and IMAP service to be unavailable for appx 15 30 minutes. All incoming mail will be queued for the few minutes that we are making the final move.

The new mail system will provide faster processing and more reliable logins. The webmail interface will also see a nice improvement in speed and reliability.

UPDATE: The move is complete. It looks to have taken closer to 40 minutes. We have a few corner cases to deal with but for the general mail account, everything is in good shape. Thanks for your patience during the move. And please do let us know if you see any problems.
