Our mail and web servers were unavailable for most of the day yesterday (Wednesday 5/16) due to a flaky internet connection. We've replaced our router and think everything should be good to go! We are also planning a WebServer hardware update this coming weekend so there will be brief periods our email and websites will not be available.
