Mike,
I know what you mean about Post.Office. I e-mailed them (openware) about
the knowledge base articles and they sent me this link:
You can point your browser to
http://support.openwave.com/post_office.html
It has most of the old stuff about Post.Office which I quickly archived for
future reference.

I really don't know. All I know is that most people couldn't get the list
for a while and slowly others were able to. It stabilized with a number of
the big ISPs like AOL and UUNet not getting anything but the smaller people
getting. Once I found the article and Aaron put it in everyone started
getting mail and the entire mailserver went crazy delivering backed up mail.
Once all the backed up mail was delivered to those who hadn't gotten in the
last 2 weeks, we had a spew of messages hit the machine. These ran the gamut
from the last week or so including a lot of list requests and such. It seems
to be over now.
As for post.office, I think its abandon-ware. The article was linked to
their site but when I went there, it was gone. Thank God for Googles
caching.
