Celtic Radio Community > Celtic Radio > Unable To Receive Mail

Posted by: Macfive 04-Mar-2004, 10:52 AM

We will be unable to receive mail for about 6 hours. I am sorry for the inconvenience but our mail server was being attacked. We want to keep our listeners safe so we had to shut it down so it can be handled appropriately.
Thank you for your patience
Killian

We have taking some steps to protect our radio server from virures. Now that the computer has been upgraded to a faster processer, we can run virus protection along with the broadcast software.

We are also updating our linux machines to the latest kernal and security features.

There are alot of weird virus's going around right now. A number of them make it appear that you sent an email with an infection, but it is a hoax. Be very careful what you open and make sure you have virus protection running - especially if you use windows and outlook mail.

Mail services are now back online. If you sent us an email today from either our contact form or email address, please resend it!

Thanks for the info Shadows. Atleast I can take comfort that it is just not directed at CelticRadio.net!

And big thanks for Killian for keeping the broadcast going today!
