on friday night 00:04 our MTA got stuck. Unfortunately i did not notice this before today. Thats the reason you got Saturday/Sunday no Mail. Now the server starts to deliver the 30000+ Mails that accrued.
Everything should be back to normal now.
Thanks! I know that the -owner address is off line on this cases, so I wrote to Feedback around 01:50 UTC on Saturday (the outage happened around 22:17 UTC Friday, ie, 3 1/2 hours earlier); I don't know if they told you. On Monday, seeing that it was still off line at midday, I wrote again (11:50 UTC). I got no answer except the automated one. I also contacted a SuSE/Novell representative that writes on the Spanish list, but although helpful, they didn't know what was happening. Finally, at 19:05 UTC email started to flow again :-) Perhaps you can suggest a better method so that we can advise you of these situations when they happen again? -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
