    Downtime from Yesterday & AOL Blocking

    <div style="color: #000080; padding: 2px;">Downtime from Yesterday & AOL Blocking</div><div style="font-size: .9em; margin-bottom: 12px; border-bottom: 1px solid #000080; padding: 2px; border-top: 1px solid #000080;">Tuesday, August 19, 2003 by Kevin Stange</div><div style="font-size: 1em;">Web was down yesterday afternoon due to spam complaints submitted to our host. The offending account has been disabled and billed spam and excessive usage fees in accordance with our policies.

    I also located an exploit of a site's formmail.pl for spamming AOL users which has resulted in an apparent AOL block of our mail server again. I'm going to see if the block is temporary, then take the appropriate action if necessary.</div>
