Kiwibank online banking site offline
by Jonathon Horsman 05 Oct '05

05 Oct '05

The Kiwibank online banking site has been offline for some time now, due to a 'technical issue': https://www.kiwibank.co.nz/banking/login.asp It's hard to imagine a technical issue requiring several days downtime. Anyone know what's going on there? Cheers Jonathon

Any XTRA Mail Server Admins available?
by David Howes 04 Oct '05

04 Oct '05

We've been seeing the same 300KB message resend through our servers every few seconds for the last 18 hours (3500 messages so far) from the XTRA mail servers. Can someone that has the ability to resolve this, contact me off-list? I've had no luck with anyone I've spoken to at XTRA/Telecom. - Dave. ---------- The information contained in this e-mail and any attachments is confidential and is intended for the attention and use of the named addressee(s) only.

An article in this weekend's Dom Post talked about words in other languages which don't have a direct equivalent in English. The Danes have "olfrygt" - the fear arising from a lack of beer.
