Hi,
All configured at this end. Point your MX record to
speakup.octothorp.org 63.224.68.1. Make it's number higher than yours.
That way, if you're down it will come hear. Add a bootup script that
says:
"fetchmail -p etrn --fetchdomains anomaly.2y.net speakup.octothorp.org"
When you boot, your machine will grab mail that has been queued up here
and deliver it locally. I see no reason why we shouldn't leave things
this way even after Saturday. Backup mailservers are a good thing.
HTH.
