AOL’s E-mail System Fails

Thursday, June 1, 2006: AOL’s e-mail system fails. The results: millions of messages were blocking.
AOL’s e-mail system crashed in that morning, leaving millions of messages stuck in a queue. AOL asked e-mailers to refrain from sending messages into the system until the problem is fixed.
What about me -- I'm not an AOL user, but most of my newsletter subscribers are!
The system failure affected both AOL.com e-mail for paid subscribers and its free AIM.com service.
The company said it has not determined the cause of the problem.
(I would say a "normal" declaration. Who cares about the cause? Bring back my e-mails and subscribers!)
AOL representative said it would announce when the system is back in operation.
Friday, June 2, 2006: AOL e-mail system is up and running. Hurrey!
Just in case you don't know: as of March 31, AOL had 18.6 million U.S. subscribers and 43 million active users of its AIM instant-messaging service.
And ALL system breaks-down! Nice work AOL...
