I've just spent the last several hours rebuilding my /var filesystem.
I had suffered some nasty corruption. :-(

The reason I'm letting everyone know is that...

  /var/spool/mqueue
  /var/spool/clientmqueue
  /var/www/htdocs

...are all on that filesystem.  I'm pretty sure that the only things I
lost were several years of old logs, and a few gigabytes of spam.  But
there is a possibility that I've lost some legitimate mail and some
things under /var/www/htdocs.

If you've sent any mail to me or any of the lists recently that hasn't
been acknowledged in some way, it might pay you to resend it.  Sorry.

Also, keep an eye on the web sites and report any breakage.

Thanks everyone!

P.S. Donations of thumping big raid arrays and backup devices/media
     graciously accepted. :-)
