Spam.34sp.com is currently experiencing intermittent failure issues.
We suspect a faulty processor fan on the server to be causing these outages in periods of high usage (over heating).
Throughout the day you may see periods of temporarily unavailability. When the server fails we are restoring service as soon as possible.
We are also working to move the server to a cooler location and installation of a replacement fan.
We have confirmed that the CPU fan in the spam server has failed. The server has now been moved to a cooler location and a replacement fan is being couriered from our suppliers for installation later today. At this time the server is up and available. Service may prove to be intermittent during the afternoon.
The server is currently down to allow the fan to be replaced. We expect this to last for 15 minutes or so.
The fan has been replaced and is functioning correctly. There should be no further interruptions to the mail filtering service due to this issue.
We would like to apologise for the inconvenience this will have caused to those customers who have been affected.

The backup of the data on holly.34sp.com is taking longer than expected - it was running overnight and is till running. At this time we plan to upgrade the server when the backup is complete. More information will be posted here as it becomes available.
The backup has now completed, so holly is now being upgraded.
