1/26/96 MiamiU Mail Disruption MiamiU (VM/CMS) mail services experienced a disruption from approximately 5 p.m. Friday afternoon, January 26th, until 10 a.m. Saturday morning, January 27th. The VM virtual machine responsible for managing incoming and outgoing mail for MiamiU, MAILER, stopped. The result was a mail delivery delay during that period from both MiamiU UserIDs to all destinations and from internet addresses to MiamiU UserIDs. VM logs identified 167 mail messages from 25 Bitnet sites which reached MiamiU but were lost during the service outage. Clients expecting to receive messages from Bitnet sites listed below should request another copy. MCIS regrets the inconvenience caused by this service disruption. MAILER monitoring procedures did not perform as expected and are being adjusted to prevent any further repeat of this problem.
