What do you need to do?

*         Not much. We will be exporting / importing the subscribers to the new 
server.

*         You may need to modify your filtering rules. The best way to do that 
is to filter on the "list-id:" in the headers.

Background
As you are probably aware, we've been suffering a few problems on the OzTFS, 
OzMOSS and OzSilverlight mailing lists lately. (List Posting Errors, etc)

Additionally, the server that runs the lists is near the end of its 
life<http://notgartner.wordpress.com/2008/10/03/community-server-outage-now-back-up/>
 and it's time to retire it.  Codify<http://www.codify.com/> currently host the 
busy & popular ausdotnet mailing 
list<http://www.codify.com/ausdotnetMailingList> and were successfully plied 
with offers of beer to host the other Australian MS community lists on the same 
infrastructure.

We will be transitioning the lists to the new infrastructure over the next 
couple of hours.  This should be one of the last emails you receive from 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>, and all future emails should 
come from [EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.


To post to the new list (once it's switched over)

Send messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
Where/What/etc is it?
The list is hosted in a data centre in Brisbane in a dedicated 42RU rack 
belonging to Codify. It is served from Windows Server 2003, IIS, and GFI 
MailEssentials running in a VM on one of Codify's production Dell 2950 servers. 
The server has 8 x 2.4Ghz XEON cores, 16 GB of RAM and 2TB of RAID 5 disk. The 
VM is shipped periodically over a private 100 meg link to another server at 
Pipe Network's DC2 in Creek Street, Brisbane for backups. The server has 100 
meg of full-duplex Ethernet connectivity and BGP routing to diverse upstream 
providers. That should be sufficient for a mailing list :).

http://oztfs.com will be setup as a redirect to 
http://www.codify.com/lists/oztfs which includes information on how to 
subscribe and unsubscribe from the list.


If you are having problems with your subscription or you have questions about 
the list, please contact<http://blogs.msdn.com/granth/contact.aspx> me.

Grant Holliday
