English language coverage available now: Telia Sonera loses millions of emails http://www.thelocal.se/9596/20080108/
The most recent number of lost e-mails is 1.9 millions. "Trouble with the servers was first detected on December 15th, but went undetected because the person responsible for checking computer logs left the post on December 14th and wasnt replaced. As a result, no one saw what was happening and no back-up was performed before the crash. Server crashes are not uncommon in the industry and are usually not that serious if a well-functioning back-up system is in place. But Telia Soneras systems failed in this case, resulting in the permanent loss of approximately 1.9 million emails." --clip-- Juha-Matti _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
