[comp.sys.apple] BITNIC spool files lost

EARLEY@BITNIC.BITNET (Scott Earley) (08/30/88)

BITNET's distribution of info-apple goes straight from NDSUVM1 to BITNIC
without "passing GO."  It's possible that some of that mail was ours.
----------------------------Original message----------------------------
The BITNIC took a power hit today, 29 AUG 88 at about 16:40 EDT.  All
attempts were made to recover safely, but failed.  After a COLD start
we lost a few hundred spool files.  A moderate number of files were
still unprocessed by various server machines and may never be seen again.
Please excuse the inconvenience.
