I tried to send something to the good old inet-access mailing list (@inet-acces.net) and the server (duct.tape.net) has been rejecting SMTP connections for at least a day and a half. Does anybody know if this is a temporary thing, or has another old useful resource disappeared? -- Chris Adams <cmadams@hiwaay.net> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.

It is down, "but coming back" according to Avi. He didn't give an ETA. -- TTFN, patrick

Dunno the answer to your question, but SPAM-L just signed off, NANOG is a hostile wasteland. Maybe the time to sign off email has arrived. -- Requiescas in pace o email Two identifying characteristics of System Administrators: Ex turpi causa non oritur actio Infallibility, and the ability to learn from their mistakes.

I've hosted something called inet-ops@puck.nether.net which rarely if ever gets used. Do not know if it would be of value to anyone. The list is there either way. - Jared On May 5, 2009, at 6:55 PM, Larry Sheldon wrote:

Damn shame SPAM-L is about to be shut down. Seems the archives are going away too and my personal store only goes back to March 2005. Lots of usefulness in there in spite of the reasons specified for its demise. It's also a shame that everything is offtopic on NANOG. The last thing I got from inet-access was Nov. 15, 2008. What exactly is left? Does anyone know? Not really interested in web forums. Are there any worthwhile groups on usenet that aren't a spam magnet? Maybe it's time to fire up an NNTP server. ~Seth

It's *always* time to fire up an NNTP server if a web forum is the alternative.

I sent email to Avi last night (since that's the address on the whois), but I doubt my name is recognized like Patrick's. :-) -- Chris Adams <cmadams@hiwaay.net> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.

I cheated, he is crashing at my place tonight so I didn't have to deal with e-mail. He says new listserve is in testing, should be in production in 3 days. -- TTFN, patrick
