cyberpass.net is still up and running. Don't know what happend to them but
it seems like a portion of the subscribers became unsubscribed. I don't
know if this was caused by a system crash or a file becoming corrupted. I
re-subscribed to the list last night and am receiving mail from the node.
There are currently 5 nodes in operation:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
which will be leaving us shortly.
Not really the end of the world here. I have been subscribed to all 5
lists since each one started and they all have been reasonably reliable
for a high volume list.
Even if you don't want to subscribe to ssz.com that still leaves you 3
others or if nothing else you could always start your own node to take up
the slack.
