wes,
This is the first such failure here so it ain't common to me. :-) The last
time I lost incoming mail (not that many months ago) it was after a postfix
upgrade that replaced the highly customized main.cf with the default
template version. When I found that to be the case it was a matter of
restoring the old main.cf.
So, it was the DSL modem/switch that decided to mis-behave, eh? Should
this happen again power-cycling the bugger will be the first thing I'll do.
Much thanks,
Rich
