About 6.5% of my page views in Feb came from unwanted robots, and that doesn't include ones that need to be blocked by IP.

Depending on how quickly your DNS updates, you may not be able to send e-mail to the lists. This interruption should not last more than 4 hours. If this message looks familiar, it is. We didn't get the lists moved last night due to some upgrade problems. We've got most of those issues sorted (some configuration might not have carried forward) and it should go smoother tonight.
