Running latest beta? Power outage tomorrow (Saturday)

Due to some electrical power maintenance which needs to be done (half a 
floor lost its neutral the other day, so they want to check the rest of 
the building), all services at ecs.soton.ac.uk will be out of action 
tomorrow.

Fortunately, the only thing this affects is my mail and the 
www.mailscanner.eu website, where you get the phishing.bad.sites.conf 
file from (if you're running the latest beta). The 
update_bad_phishing_sites cron job that updates the file for you will 
continue running, leaving your last copy of the file in place.

As an extra precaution, I have moved www.mailscanner.eu out of our 
systems, as a static website.
So you should continue to get the file perfectly normally, you just 
won't get any new hosts added to the list.

Everything should revert back to normal by about 7pm GMT tomorrow 
(Saturday).

By then I'm going to be suffering serious withdrawal symptoms! :-(
If you need to get in contact with me, I'll be on the IRC channel.

Jules
