[Pat Spencer, KD4PWL]

I don't think that anyone on KYHAM is affected by anything said below, 
but this email just came in from Al Waller, K3TKJ the owner of QSL and 
QTH.NET.  For those who have been asking, here's Al's side.

Wow  that was fun....It's all back to normal

Saturday morning I noticed the Mailman server running slow and I 
rebooted it. It never came back alive. Tim and I had been planning this 
upgrade for a while but it was not supposed to be during Dayton week.  
Anyway we decided to upgrade the hardware and the software at the same 
time. It was supposed to be easy and it really was except for one small 
problem.  About 25 users had corrupted passwords and it stopped the 
upgrade cold. It was a bit of a challenge to find the corrupt ones when 
all the files ar hashed db files.  Required writing and debugging a 
half a dozen programs to do all I needed. ALL lists are now back to 
normal with the exception of the lists that had corrupt user passwords. 
They will require you to reset your welcome message and list 
preferences. No users were lost, but digest users became regular users 
on the corrupt lists.

The corrupted lists were:

elecraft
icom
dl-qrp-ag
qrp-l
cozy_builders
acars
collins
cw
dx4win
dxbase
r-390
sstv-atv
wsvhf
wswss
yaesu
1000mp
flexnet
ham-news
ham-software
kenwood

ALL other lists restored and upgraded normally.
So we are Dayton bound....will be there Thursday morning, flea market 
space 2828  and monitoring 147.455 simplex. Come find  us, we would 
like to meet you.

73, Al
