    1. FYI - rootsweb.com
    2. I got the following today. In case anyone attempted to send any messages through the FLJACKSO- L@rootsweb.com list, there may be a delay (as you can see). If the message does not appear in reasonable amount of time (a day or so), please resend. I've been subscribing to various lists at rootsweb for some time now and this is the first time this has happened to me. O well.... a small sacrifice for technology. Cindy re: <snip> Our main list server, lists.rootsweb.com, has been down since this morning. We are hard at work installing a new disk and preparing to reinstall the operating system. Once that's done, we will reinstall the mailing list software and run some tests to make sure that everything is operating smoothly. As long as the system is not working, we're also going to try to take advantage of this down time by preparing a new, faster server for that machine, which is woefully underpowered for the amount of mail that passes through it. We expect to have the server running again by midnight (U.S. East Coast time) and hope to have the backlogged mail cleared out by Sunday morning. Thankfully, we don't believe that any mail has been lost (only delayed), and all of the archives appear to be intact. <snip>
