With the launch of our new forum, we are going to start posting system status (such as hardware outages, etc.) in our announcements forum. Please click over to:

http://forum.sproutit.com/forums/5

And subscribe to the RSS feed there to get those notices. For a few more weeks, I’ll post system status here and there while everyone transitions, but soon we will post there only.

Here is the most recent post from the forum:

Some of you may be experiencing occassional internal server errors today. Here is what’s going on:

Over the last few weeks we’ve experienced occasional freezes on our main web server. The freezes have become more frequent in the last few days. To try to solve this problem we have been replacing hardware on our server among other things based on what appeared to be causing the problem. Each time we have made a change however, the source of the freezes has moved somewhere else.

Last night we tried replacing some additional parts but as you can tell the issue has not been resolved. Today we will probably take Mailroom down again for a few minutes to replace the entire server. Hopefully this will take care of the issue for good.

We know that maby of you spend eight hours a day in Mailroom so reiability is important to you. This is our only priority until the problems are resolved so please know we are working hard to get things back to normal as soon as possible.
