Sorry, I meant to post yesterday, then realized I didn't have the SC

news server set up on my laptop. One thing lead to another....

The system is down for approximately four hours beginning at 11:00am PDT

(-0700) for software upgrades. This doesn't affect SpamCop mail

accounts or access. Submissions are accepted, but processing is delayed

until the systems are brought back up. When the systems are back

online, expect a processing delay due to backlog.

I also just got word this maintenance will not fix the 'unreported spam'

bug/issue. That fix is currently in QA and they expect to hot patch on

Monday to fix that and a couple of other issues.

I stand corrected. Because the maintenance took longer than expected

(they always forget how big our DB is and how long syncing takes), the

hot patch went ahead Thursday. The 'unreported spam' issue should now

be fixed.

Let us know if you see otherwise. Thanks,

Richard
