FYI -- Mike Dunton -----Original Message----- From: Tim Pierce [mailto:twp@rootsweb.com] Sent: Sunday, November 29, 1998 7:59 AM To: listowners-announce@rootsweb.com Subject: AOL bounces Hi, folks -- In the last week or two, AOL users have been experiencing more trouble than usual delivering mail to RootsWeb. Apparently AOL's mail servers have been having difficulty establishing a connection to us, so AOLers (both listowners and regular subscribers) have been getting bounces that say "could not deliver mail for 3 days" when sending to RootsWeb. To fix this, I've set up a secondary mail server for RootsWeb. If AOL can't deliver mail to our primary mail server, it should automatically try to deliver to the secondary. Since the two servers live on totally different networks, the probability of being unable to deliver to *both* systems should be pretty low, so I think the problem will mostly go away. So, thanks for your bug reports, and let's see if this doesn't fix things for your subscribers. -- Regards, Tim Pierce RootsWeb Genealogical Data Cooperative system obfuscator and hack-of-all-trades
