I'm not sure what the problem is, but it looks like some of the fundamental software libraries have been corrupted. The SmartList software and virtually all other packages on the server are critically dependent upon those libraries. I'll be doing a partial or full reload of the operating system on that box, and that will take me between 8 and 32 hours depending on how things go and how much coffee I can stand. That means we'll be down today and probably tomorrow, and Sunday we'll be playing catch-up. I think we'll be returning to fully normal operations by Monday. No mail will be lost -- all your users' posts are queued on our mail hub. The mail will just be delayed, and may arrive out of order. Karen and I are probably going to be pretty unresponsive to e-mail, because we're going to be kinda busy. Sorry about the delays in delivery, but we'll get this fixed much faster than UPS is getting its strike fixed. -B
