I've been in touch with datanet, because we have a mail server on their network. They say its maintainance. And indeed we have a lot of mail that's just being held in the queue.

If you use TEAMS over a BSC link (parts of Roke and Datanet do) then you probably will see that the folling statement will time out: telnet alt4.gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com 25 If you are running an SMTP server, no email has been going out for about 24 hours. It seems to be some very smart person very far away from Uganda that thought this was a good idea and didnt tell anyone. You can read this email, because our SMTP server(s) and the LUG SMTP server are both hosted in Uganda, so under normal circumstances, we are all not affected by these connectivity challenges. -- rgds, Reinier Battenberg Director Mountbatten Ltd. +256 758 801 749 www.mountbatten.net http://twitter.com/batje http://twitter.com/mapuganda _______________________________________________ The Uganda Linux User Group: http://linux.or.ug Send messages to this mailing list by addressing e-mails to: [email protected] Mailing list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Mailing list settings: http://kym.net/mailman/listinfo/lug To unsubscribe: http://kym.net/mailman/options/lug The Uganda LUG mailing list is generously hosted by INFOCOM: http://www.infocom.co.ug/ The above comments and data are owned by whoever posted them (including attachments if any).
