Good grief!

Terry Blanton reports that this discussion group is being hosted on an ISP afflicted with the problems of a country-western hard-luck ballad; i.e., the dog died, Robert is in prison, and the singer's best friend left with the truck and the wife:

   That would be Carl.  He's kinda filling in.  Here's a post from the
   EskimoNorthUsers Yahoo group from Tuesday:

   Today the mail server crashed, and the web server crashed. The mail
   server is now back online, however the web server really bit the
   dust this time. The cpu in it died. I have replaced the motherboard
   and cpu, with one that has two cpu's on it. They are both 300Mhz,
   instead of 400mhz, but there is two of them instead of one.
   Hopefully they can handle the load for now because it's all I have
   for spares until Robert gets out of Prison. . . .


I thought this kind of ISP went extinct in the 1990s.

Maybe we should consider moving to another ISP? The problem with rejected messages is annoying.
