Never leave 'til tomorow…

…that which you can put off indefinitely.

Today saw a very strange set of outages of Pepperfish’s upstream ISP’s routing. After a while Loud-n-Clear managed to get enough back running that I was able to move MX services to the new IP range which we’ve been pending putting into action for quite a while now.
