 | | Serious E-mail issue resolved
|
| @ll, I am very sorry that apparently a serious issue with LUGNET's e-mail service went unnoticed for a couple of days. This resulted in a backlog of some 16,000 messages that went unprocessed plus several thousand e-mails that were not sent out. The (...) (19 years ago, 14-Nov-07, to lugnet.announce)
