Email problems - update from IDNet

[Rik]

"We've kept the Network Status at Sub-optimal because we've not completely finished optimising the new setup.

We have taken this opportunity to split the services up and re-instate them on separate servers.

POP3 and IMAP are on the server that we used as a stand-in last year (Clunker).
Spam Assasin is running on a new server (mailfilter.idnet.com).
Webmail is running as a virtual server (good test for VMware) on another machine.
Blogspace and Galleries are on their own machine.
Webspace is on a new separate machine.
SMTP is planned to move to another machine tomorrow.
The full-scale spam filter should be activated tomorrow.

We've also created a hot-spare server containing configurations for all of the above so that it can be made live if any service fails.

It has not been a completely smooth road to get to here but we are now certain that all mail is flowing uninterrupted, with no delays, in all directions.

We hope to set the Status of this service to Optimal before the weekend.

Simon"
