5/4     How reliable is <DEAD>cal.berkeley.edu<DEAD>? I'm wondering whether to use
        them as a permanent email alias.
        \_ I started using this around december as an alias (so far only to
           my csua account) and havent had any problems. I've experienced a
           slightly longer delay on average when sending mail to this as
           opposed to my csua account direcly (on the order of 3 minutes)
           ... but never any downtime as far as I know.
        \_ I've been using it since it first started. They had some
           problems initially but it has been pretty reliable for the
           last several months.
        \_ It's really cool!  It's a C-64 with tcp/ip loaded up from a 1514
           using a serial/ethernet converter!  All email is stored is ram
           stored and directly sent to the next hop so you don't have to worry
           about waiting for your mail to hit the second 1514 drive.  I'd
           trust it with my life!  Although sometimes they take it offline
           after hours to play any number of C-64 classics but that's only
           fair.
                \_ hi dork!
           \_ WooHoo! Who's up for a game of M.U.L.E.?
              \_ I'm partial to space taxi! (I have vice on my pc and play
                 these things all the time).
