Hi Folks,
Should have posted this earlier, but I wanted to let everyone know That we
are aware of the delays in email delivery that are affecting Many groups right
now. The problem is not related to any of the Database and hardware work we
were doing earlier in the year. Rather, the primary cause is the "My Wife" virus
( http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_138027.htm ), which has caused a Huge spike
in the number of emails sent to Yahoo! Groups. This spike Has gone beyond the
capacity of our current systems to handle, which Is causing the delays in
email delivery. We have already taken two steps to address the issue, which has
Begun to reduce the number of delays: - We are dropping (I.e. Not delivering)
all outgoing email that Includes the virus (in other words, we are not sending
infected Messages to groups).- We have added additional server capacity And we
are planning to increase that capacity even more. However, Until the virus
has fully played itself out or more ISPs have taken Steps to reduce the amount
of email they are sending to us (by Dropping messages that contain the virus
rather than forcing us to Do it), there may continue to be some delays. Our
apologies for any inconvenience.
