Forwarding Delay

Those of you who are having mail forwarded to a roadrunner account (rr.com, roadrunner.com, twc.com, and a few others) are experiencing significant delays in receiving mail. The problem is that roadrunner is deliberately delaying the mail because of the "volume". We are trying to resolve this with them, but given the holiday weekend, it does not appear that it is going to happen for a few days. In the meantime, our mail queue is building up. There are well over 300 emails waiting for roadrunner to accept. The DNS convergence appears to be much farther along today than it was last night. All the DNS servers I have been able to check have all the new values. However, the process is not complete as the old server continues to receive mail. There are also still messages in the old outgoing mail server's queue. I am leaving it up till they either get accepted or returned to the originator. It will not accept new mail though.

 

Transition

The DNS propagation has started but it taking considerably longer than normal. Several DNS servers that I am able to check are about half way through the propagation. They have some of the new values, but not all of them. As a result we are continuing to receive email at the original LAFN servers. Those will be in your old LAFN mailbox. However, there seems to be an issue with a couple of users who are receiving a lot of email such the forwarding MTAs are complaining and slowing down delivery. I will address this tomorrow with the individuals to see what can be done about that. We may have to implement incoming mail limits here also.

 

Starting Transition

I hate typos. They get you every time and are hard to find. I think I got that one squashed. Starting the transition now.

 

LAFN Mail Service

As usual, the more you test, the more things go wrong. The mail forwarding service is not functioning at this time, so all shutdown of the LAFN servers is on hold while we fix the problem. I expect there will be a couple day delay. There will be further announcements here when I have more information.

Its almost time for the last hurrah. This is just a final reminder that I will start the shutdown right after midnight. I will be terminating my email service probably around 11 pm tonight so will not be able to respond to emails till after the transition is complete. This is to be able to have time to test the forwarding service prior to it's going live.
