Guys,

I apologize for all of the downtime lately... my old ISP (Cox) started
turning off my connection due to the volume of outbound emails
starting about 5-6 weeks ago.  Then I moved to a new house which was
more downtime.  Now I have a much better ISP with more bandwidth and
less restrictions.  The problem is that since my move my server keeps
freezing due to what Linux calls a hardware error.  I have tried
running on each stick of RAM independently, have replaced the CPU, the
video card, and the second Ethernet card with no improvement.  I don't
see any hard drive errors, so pretty much that leaves the motherboard.
 Unfortunately the system is fairly old and my first attempt to
replace the motherboard failed.

So finally I decided to order the parts to build a new server.  This
means in 1-2 weeks things should be up for good.  Unfortunately I
fully expect the system to spend the entire 4th of July weekend locked
up (it locks up about every 3-4 hours) until I reboot it).

The good news is that my new ISP does not block ports 25 and 80 so I
will be able to move www.logwatch.org back to port 80 and even accept
the mailing list email directly once things are stable again.

Thanks guys!
