We found a helpful contact within the @home network, who earlier today reported: >I just received word regarding this issue. Apparently, this particular >server experienced problems with the load balancer on the server. Our >Engineering Ops staff were up all night correcting the situation. > >Apparently now, the server is receiving all the queued mail from random >servers that were blocked out from the load balancer, thus increasing the >inbound traffic load and slowing mail delivery down. I am told though, that >people should be able to connect and send email, as the issue has been >resolved on this end. Indeed, our mail queue has decreased from 5000+ @home.com messages earlier today to about 1100 at this time. -- Byron Lunz DataBack Systems LLC
