This may/may not mean anything. Some days ago I got a brief mail
from reminding me to "re-up". I quit them months ago when they
wanted to slam me for some absurb amount-- $153.00--to be my
secondary.
I deleted their email; then in October my ~/Maildir got wiped.
(I-done -it[?]) FWIW, I had an Amazona glitch around 16:00
localtime yesterday. Amazon couldn't verify my Visa card. I
retried hours later and the DDoS seems to have resolved itself.
