Happy Spring everyone. Here are some updates for The Mail Archive. Search is about 10 times faster than before. This is due to a complete rewrite that shaves off a ton of initialization time. I'm really happy about this.
As an experiment, we're changing the way we serve ads. Previously, direct visitors saw no ads, while visitors from global internet search engines received two ad blocks per page. As of today everybody gets the same thing, a single vertical ad to to the right of the message page. If this is a problem, please speak up here or contact our support team. As computers have gotten faster over the years, we can get away with using fewer of them. We took advantage of this and moved to a smaller location in the same datacenter. Some downtime was involved, but it should be worth it in the long run. Finally, in personal news I had some fun watching our dog play in the deep snow this spring. I laughed when he sank up to his belly and started floundering around. About ten seconds later I took a step and sank up to my armpits. Good times.
