Subject: *** ADMIN: Major changes coming for the new year

Folks:
This is just a heads-up ... there are going to be some major changes
coming to
midrange.com lists very soon.
At a high level, I'm going to be moving the list server from a machine
hosted in
my basement to an amazon cloud server.
Many of the existing functionality has already been moved to amazon cloud
servers... the wiki, archive web server, & javadoc web server.
Everything should continue to operate as it did before ... with a few
notable
exceptions.
1. The email domain you send posts to will be changing. The new domain
will be
lists.midrange.com. So if you want to post to midrange-l, you would
send it to
midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx instead of midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx.
2. I will setup appropriate forwarding so emails sent to the old address
will be
forwarded. I'm unsure how long those forwards will remain in place. At
least a
number of months.
3. List email will come from 'listmail.midrange.com' with IP
35.153.110.174. If
you have setup whitelists on your mail server, they will need to be
adjusted.
Email will continue to be signed with DKIM.
I'm planning on implementing the changes over the Xmas holiday. During
that time
email to the lists will certainly be delayed if not bounced back.
You can check the status of the migration at
https://status.midrange.com.
If you have any questions regarding this, please contact me at
support@xxxxxxxxxxxx.
Thanks!
