Junkmail Filter Delays (updated!^2)

We are seeing some congestion on our junkmail filter servers. Some email is being delayed as a result. Most of the delays should be short (less than 10 minutes) but some may be longer (a couple of hours or more). We are going to be migrating the back-end junkmail database to a more powerful server today as well as adding another front-end filtering machine. We expect these changes to resolve the delays.

We’re doing tests on the new server right now, and in doing so we had to restart the database backend. Email is going to be delayed about 15 minutes thats coming through the junkmail filter while we get some new settings in place to make everything newer-better-faster!


Mail bound to our junkmail filtering servers has been flowing again for awhile now, no more changes tonight.
