I am sorry, but more about that later. This past Sunday/Monday we had a hard drive crash. I did have a recent backup, and I was able to copy the previous days list mail and all brothersgibb.com email boxes. The server was down for most of a day but I was able to quickly restore it and it was pretty much seamless, but a lot of work. I monitored the mail for the next day and a half and it was fine. Then mail seemed to stop. Weird I thought, but ok, people are just not posting... Again, weird... Then I received personal emails saying that users were not receiving mail and could not post. Ut oh... Time to dig deeper... I did and I also tried to send mail to the list. I could not! Error message: words@brothersgibb.com NOT FOUND! What!??? I checked the list server and the account/list was indeed there! What gives?! < scratching head, finger in ear > While researching I saw some info about the Internet, about email servers and block/blacklists, and the very same email problem I was having. It appears one of the major Internet Block/black list services had died. (been canceled. Actually replaced with a better/new server/service. (mail servers use these servers/services to help block SPAM). See partial message below: *** In most cases, zen.spamhaus.org replaces sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org. If you are currently using sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org you should now replace 'sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org' with 'zen.spamhaus.org'. *** I went to the Words Mail list server, removed the canceled "Spamhaus" server address and woosch! Mail started flowing again! ( I did also add the NEW zen.spamhaus.org address ) It appears that we are somewhat back to normal, EXCEPT for a few users using SBCGLOBAL.NET address. But I am trying to get that resolved. I am hoping that we are pretty much back to normal. Well, if anyone of us really ever were!!! .....----===*Chris... >Hellooooo Chris.

I got a weird message that said I had been unsubbed and I thought, Holy Moly, what have I done to deserve this (I have been very qu= iet of late and behaving well :o) then the penny dropped that the mail had be= en a bit strange just prior.
