The network maintenance scheduled for 2009-06-21 from midnight central time to 6:00am central time has been completed.  DNS entries for mf1.ijnet.net, mf2.ijnet.net, g1.ijnet.net and g2.ijnet.net have been restored to their original settings to point to the respective gateways.  It will take up to 24 hours for these DNS changes to propogate.  During this time the temporary gateways will remain online and available to accept mail from those servers that have not received updated DNS information.  The temporary gateways will continue to forward mail to the appropriate gateway for processing.

There is currently a backlog of mail that was recieved by the temporary gateways during the maintenance window.  This mail will be forwarded to the gateways to be processed as quickly as possible, but users may continue to experience mail delays for several hours as the gateways catch up with the backlog.

We thank you for your patience during this maintenance window and look forward to being able to provide enhanced service and additional services in the near future.  Please contact support with any questions or issues you may be experiencing.

On Sunday, 2009-06-21 from 12:00AM CST to 6:00AM CST Purity Networks will be performing a planned network maintenance.  During this maintenance window there may be extended periods where mail will be held at temporary staging gateways for later delivery to our email protection gateways and delivery to your server.  At no time will mail be bounced or will services appear to be unavailable to sending servers.

Additionally, the following services may be unavailable for extended periods during this maintenance window:

• Our public websites, including www.purity.net
