Hi All, Hopefully this message will go out to the list. It will be the first in 6 days. My current understanding is that a hacker got into our account (it's unclear how at this point), and deleted SeeSat-L and SeeSat-D from our account. As soon as I was alerted to this problem, I've been working hard at getting the list back. Unfortunately, as we are now on a private prrovider, I do not have as many possibilities to troubleshoot, and more importantly to get a back-up in place. As of today, 96 hours after my first request, the provider still has not installed a backup version of the lists (after I paid $50). They may sti For now, I have worked quite a few hours to try and recreate the current distribution list of both lists (SeeSat-L and SeeSat-D) using a very old back-up from September 2001, and the log-file of all subscription requests since then. This process is not foolproof as the information available to me is limited). However, I think we have a relatively accurate distribution list now. But it is quite probable that some of you have been unsubscribed or subscribed with incorrect or double addresses. So, please accept my apologies for this inconvenience. You can remedy this yourself by following the instructions on the web-page mentioned in the footer of this message. Or you can contact me directly and I will do my best to correct your address entry. Hopefully we will back up now and stable. Please bear with me as I finetune things. Cheers, Bart, SeeSat-L administrator, bart@satellite.eu.org PS: I suspect that the hacker in question has dialed in using an internet address in the domain dialup.tiscali.it If you have any information about this person, please contact me. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www2.satellite.eu.org/sat/seesat/seesatindex.htm
