NZNOG-People, I have just finished migrating all of the mailing lists held at The University of Waikato from one server to another. I don't have any reason to believe that anything's gone wrong, but please bear with me for today if it turns out that something has. - Donald Neal -- Donald Neal | Q: How many Aucklanders does it take to change Systems Programmer/Analyst | a light bulb?

Charging for IPv6
by Philip D'Ath 24 Aug '08

24 Aug '08

Initially those transit providers and ISPs that do offer IPv6 transit will be able to charge for this service as it will be a premium value add. However I can't see this business model being able to last for more than 6 years (through to 2012), and possibly only three years. After this point in time I expect IPv6 deployment will be standard, and will no longer be a premium service offering - it will be the standard offering, like IPv4 is today. Once IPv4 has become exhausted and you can't actually give a customer an IPv4 address then you definitely wont be able to charge more for IPv6 - otherwise the customer will walk. So do providers start implementing slowly now, and recoup some of their investment while they can, or wait till they are forced to do the upgrades and are not able to recoup any of their "new" investment. Rhetorical question.

Hotmail
by Simon Garner 24 Apr '07

24 Apr '07

Has anyone else here encountered issues where email to Hotmail is just silently discarded? Hotmail's servers accept the email for delivery, but then it never appears in the inbox, nor the Junk folder. I have been trying to work through this problem with a customer for the last couple of weeks and it's got me stumped. The domain (simpleas.co.nz) of the server the customer is sending from has SPF and SenderID records, and mail to other sites works fine (Gmail for example shows "PASS" for the SPF records). I am offering free beer for the first person with a working solution. PS: I'd ask Hotmail, but it seems like it's not worth the effort: http://davesource.com/Bugs/hotmail.1.html Cheers, -- Simon Garner Technical Director <sgarner(a)expio.co.nz> EXPIO Communications Ltd <http://www.expio.co.nz>
