***Bulletin - Tuesday,  9/18/07*** 
7:00am  Tuesday, September 18, 2007
This morning when I just  checked the queue there were over one hundred 
messages waiting to be approved.  And a large digest had gone out. It appears that 
Hostway has fixed the problem,  at least for the moment. I am still 
considering changing over to a new system.  We'll see how long the "fix" lasts. Please 
do read the rest of the "history"  below so you understand why there have been 
problems for the past several  weeks.

Monday, September 17, 2007
Hostway  informed me this morning that in order to fix the problem, they have 
to move  Neohiopal to a new server. Just a few minutes ago they informed me 
the problem  is more complicated, because in order to move it to a new server 
they have to  upgrade the software and charge me five times more, as well as 
limit the list to  2,300 subscribers. I told them that it isn't possible to dump 
half the  subscribers. They are reviewing the situation and will get back to 
me shortly.  In the meantime, I am researching other services and may have to 
transfer to  another software. If any of you have suggetions for this, please 
email me at  fsternfeld at aol.com.

A summary of the problems ...
The Digest version  has only been working sporadically for the last several 
weeks. I have been  calling Hostway repeatedly to fix the problem. So far, the 
only action from  Hostway has been to occasionally push out the accumulated 
postings - so that is  why you have seen digests of 150 and 130. But obviously 
the underlying problem  has not gotten fixed yet because it is still not going 
out on a daily basis.  

Also, as of 2pm, Saturday, September 15,  the one-at-a-time postings aren't  
going out. The entire system is currently jammed. 

To see what you have missed  through Saturday, September 15, 2pm, check out 
the _archives_ (http://lists.fredsternfeld.com/pipermail/neohiopal/) . 

Thanks for your patience. 

Warm Regards,
Fred  Sternfeld
