And it is fast! And big! And louder!
What is? The new CentOS mail server is, which coincidentally also hosts the mailing lists you are reading right now.
After three short hours and (AFAICS) no lost mail we now have the following situation:
The mailq on the old mail server now is empty, while the new one is already fighting with stale dns info, unknown users, deferrals and so on. Normal insanity, I'd say.
One word to our moderators and/or mailing list administrators: Everything should work as it did on the old machine. If your list *admin* password isn't working anymore, please drop me a mail so we can clear that up.
Everybody else: Send even more mails! The infrastructure for that is here now!
Cheers,
Ralph

Lucky you told us, I was just about to start my spam-dance to see if the gods would bestow more emails upon us.
The goat thanks you for saving his life too.
I don't know what I'm going to do with this alter though...

That's yer story and yer stickin' to it. If I may quote our dear Field Commander Wieers (hi Dag!):

<soapbox> BTW, thanks again to all the CentOS maintainers for the list, the support and the ongoing work that it takes to keep this distro at its best.

I recognized the switch must have been happened once I started getting replies before the answers ;-)

The only way to beat that is to tell her you are wrong before she has a chance to! ;-P

That NEVER works, although if you're trying to commit suicide or celibacy, it's worth a shot!

Does this mean less spankings for way OT threads?
Or even the occasional virtual fist fight?
