*** ADMIN: Migrating this mailing list to new server

Folks:

The effort to migrate the mailing list server to a new host has been a bit fraught with troubles ... but I think I've got most of the major issues resolved.

The biggest remaining issue is that Yahoo doesn't like a major influx of email from a new IP address all at once.

They want me to 'warm up' the new IP by sending some mail from the new server IP to get Yahoo used to the traffic & type of mail.

Guess what! This list won that lottery ... so I'm going to be migrating this list over to the new server Tuesday evening (1/8).

This will mean that mail sent from & to the list will use the address LINUX5250@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

Mail sent to LINUX5250@xxxxxxxxxxxx will continue to work for quite a while, but eventually that forward will be shut down (no eta on that).

I will post a message when the migration is complete (along with a few test messages).

The only ramification is that yahoo subscribers may experience a delay in mail delivery.
