apparently, not have a ups on your gnatbox invalidates the warantee.. which may be worth some thought.

If you're interested, here's the background: Every so often we have scheduled power outages, eg, annual testing of the building's power supply. We have another potential one this weekend. Our gb-100 doesn't have a UPS attached. In the past, I've either shut it down and turned it off or just let it go down and back up with the power. This weekend, there is only a low probablility of a power outage, so I'm not inclined to turn off the gb-1000. However, if there is a power cut, the gb-1000 comes back online and tries to relay mail (we use the mail proxy service) to an internal mail server. If the internal mail server hasn't come back online after a graceful UPS shutdown, the gb-1000 tends to bounce incoming mail back to the sender, ie, it doesn't do store and forward. One way around this is to ensure that our mail server *does* come back online after a UPS shutdown and I'm working on this. The other option is to prevent the gb-1000 coming back online after a power interruption. ------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
