Guest guest Posted May 6, 2006 Report Share Posted May 6, 2006 This is the message being passed around some railfan groups. Just some new virus that they wern't ready for. Biff Byrum Hi Folks, Should have posted this earlier, but I wanted to let everyone know That we are aware of the delays in email delivery that are affecting Many groups right now. The problem is not related to any of the Database and hardware work we were doing earlier in the year. Rather, the primary cause is the " My Wife " virus ( http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_138027.htm), which has caused a Huge spike in the number of emails sent to . This spike Has gone beyond the capacity of our current systems to handle, which Is causing the delays in email delivery. We have already taken two steps to address the issue, which has Begun to reduce the number of delays: - We are dropping (I.e. Not delivering) all outgoing email that Includes the virus (in other words, we are not sending infected Messages to groups). - We have added additional server capacity And we are planning to increase that capacity even more. However, Until the virus has fully played itself out or more ISPs have taken Steps to reduce the amount of email they are sending to us (by Dropping messages that contain the virus rather than forcing us to Do it), there may continue to be some delays. Our apologies for any inconvenience. - Gordon Team [] Re: Problems with yesterday > I was wondering where everyone went to but perhaps a number of people > out enjoying the good weather too. > > > > > > Group, > > > > Just so you are aware, if you are not already, almost all posts that > I > > had released and some directly from the board were never posted. > > > had a glitch yesterday and I guess they vanished into cyberspace. > Even > > some of my posts directly from the board never showed up.
