Are you confusing them with Digital Ocean ?


I am able to hold this view on multiple hosts simultaneously, thinking
it of one does not exclude others from my ire.


Sorry. My comment was meant to be a joke.
Should have included a smiley.

Surely everyone drops every packet from OVH long before it reaches their
MTA, so one hopes nobody notices any difference.

I'm glad that everyone is safe, but I retract my normal opinion that OVH
should get in the sea, as that might extinguish the fire.

[mailop] OVH Strasbourg suffers major fire

2021-03-09 Thread Graeme Fowler via mailop
Morning all

Some of you may have seen that OVH has suffered a catastrophic fire in one of 
their datacentre locations in Strasbourg. The CEO has written that one 
datacentre is destroyed, one partially damaged, and several others offline due 
to electrical isolation.

All staff, thankfully, have been accounted for and are safe.

Hopefully nobody on the list has been directly affected. Many of us will be 
indirectly affected due to the volume of sites they host, and many more may see 
web apps not functioning as bits of them are also hosted there.

From a mailop perspective, whilst this may seem a bit dark, I’d be interested 
to see whether this creates a (however brief!) downturn in hostility, spam and 
scams.
