Email follies

[rsc]

Some of you may have heard that the panix.com domain name was hijacked over the weekend. I don't understand the technical details of how this was done, or all its consequences, but what I do know is that mail sent to me at my normal address probably won't arrive. An alternative domain has been established, so if you need to send me email about something, use .net instead of .com until further notice.

Folks at Panix are, from what I understand, working around the clock to get the problem resolved.

i've been receiving lj notifications as well.

i'm going to guess that someone at lj knows that there are a lot of panix users here and just put in the substitution. panix is just large enough that there are probably a few places out there rerouting automatically.
