Subject:      VANAGON LIST NOT DOWN - YOUR ADMINS

The vanagon list is not down. List traffic exceeded 100 mesages for the
day, Friday/Saturday. When this threshold is reached the server
automatically "stops" processing all new messages. This is something we
(the admins) established to keep the server I/O's from being overworked.
You say 100 messages isn't much ... well this translates into 80,000+
messages that the list server must process. We will see about up'ing the
threshold, but we beseech one-n'-all to use a little discretion when
sending, replying, and/or forwarding mail to the list.


Your neighborly vanagon list admins,


Ron Lussier
Chris Smith
