FreeLists / si-list / [SI-LIST] si-list is back in business

[Ray Anderson <raymond.anderson@xxxxxxx>]

si-list subscribers:

Around 7:45 PDT this evening si-list returned to the net. I don't
have any of the details yet on what was destroyed at the data center
by the lightning hit, but apparently enough was salvageable to get
the necessary servers up and running without loss of data. We owe
John Madden and the rest of the freelists.org staff a big thanks
for the rapid repair of a major system failure.

I have just captured the current si-list subscriber database just in case.
Yesterday all I had was one 2 months old which proved to be only 90% current.
(out of about 3500 subscribers we received about 400 bounced messages due to
discontinued or changed addresses).

More details when they emerge. (and thanks to those list subscribers who
have offered help in restoring the servers to functionality)
