Downtime this Sunday

I'm going to take firebird (the Phoenyx main server) down this Sunday
afternoon between 13:00 and 16:00 CDT to install a memory card we received
a few weeks ago and a tape backup drive I bought off eBay.  No software
changes at this point, so it should be a simple take-it-down,
plug-stuff-in, boot-it-up operation and I expect to be down for less than
half-an-hour if all goes well, but we could be off-line for longer than
that.  (That's all Phoenyx services.)

As long as we aren't offline for more than four hours, all mail delivery
should be handled without a hiccup... it will be queued on the sending
server without errors reported to the user and sent through to us when our
server comes back up.

Btw: It's not on our wishlist, but if you have any spare Travan TR-4 tapes
you'd like to give away, the darn things are twenty-five bucks apiece new
and I could use a few more to handle a proper rotation, off-site backup,
etc.
