There seems to be no pop mail server and one of my orpheus hosted web
sites is also down. log reports fetch at 23.20 was the first failure.

Same here. 00:15 no email, my personal web site down and cannot reach the
orpheus website. Looks like a server has blown up.

..and here ..at 04h45. I think you might be correct.
Something has dropped out somewhere along the line,
as have the backups. A rare, comprehensive, outage?

No mail, no webmail, no Orpheus W3 and no mushy peas.
Newsgroup contact still OK ..as you will see if you
read this..

I've no doubt Paul (and D.., his tame SysAdmin) will
get it all back on line asap...

Years ago, when still ArgoNet, rumour had it that it
was Steve, Molly's boyfriend, who powered everything
down accidentally using the office hoover; later, it
was Rich Goodwin pluggin' in the teamaker.

Then came the time of the old Argonet office removal,
when the shifty white-van removers wrapped up the sole
extension lead connected to the street lamp outside...

I blame the >>>0;0<<<'s

Don't worry ..no doubt Paul will be doing his utmost
to have us back and online again just as soon as he
can....

Indeed. Working on the problem now.....

SMTP is working ok, but POP connections are being refused. The backup
should actually be working, so mail is arriving and being queued - you just
can't connect to POP. :-(

Looks like a spam attack on the server overnight overloaded it. Should be
back up and running as soon as I get an onsite engineer to reboot server.

All fixed, and all services restored and working correctly again.

Phew!! Cup of tea time now methinks! :-)
