Hello everybody Right! I know, you’ve heard it all before! But I need to tell you that this time, it is official, for definite, for sure, for certain, forever! Our current E-Mail and WWW "server will be officially decommissioned at 17:00 BST, (which is 16:00 (UTC)) this afternoon. That is to say, Thursday, the second of October, (or October Second), which ever tickles your fancy.
The reasons I delayed again yesterday was that it occurred to me that our c connectivity host had not come up with a promised modification to our service which is essential. As of 10:00 this morning, that change has now been implemented which makes it technically possible for me to roll out the change. Regrettably, there will be some down time for our E-Mail systems, and for all of our other services and facilities. That is, I’m sorry to say, unavoidable. I need to physically re-configure the hubs on all three of our out-facing networks in order to fully accommodate our new hardware systems. I currently have it all on a temporary test network. As I said, This will impact on all of our services and facilities, so we apologise for the unavoidable outage. But this time, there’s no going back. This tine the tat-bbs.co.uk mail service is set to auto-destruct, and there’s nothing that any person on earth can do to prevent it. Now, some exciting new news. If you have been receiving the Panic newsletters, you with know that Transmit for IOS8 and many more Panic software developments are set to his the Apple and PC world. Accordingly, we are revamping our server systems and will soon be able to offer secure storage for members if there is a need. Cloud systems are fine, but you have no idea where your data is being stored. Our system is not a cloud. It is a permanent and secure server where nobody, not even I myself have access to a member’s directories and files. If you took our services before, or would like to again for the first time, contact either [email protected] or our emergency address which is [email protected] for further information. Thanks, and again we are sorry for any inconvenience. Whenever we do this it will inconvenience somebody so all we can do is to do so outside of local office hours.
