If it isn’t one thing, it’s your mother.

I survived the UPS repair ordeal. So what happens on my first full day back on the job?

The email server goes insane.

Right now it’s operating on one (intermittent) TCP/IP thread (out of ten… and that’s up from the eight it was configured for previously… it’s the only suggestion I was able to glean from a couple hours’ worth of Novell support and Google trawling) and thus running as slow as a snail on quaaludes.

And of course, it’s after 5pm Eastern time so Corporate IT has already gone home. Whee.

I just love an insoluble problem and a complete lack of support. You bet your sweet, sweet bippy.

UPDATE: Corporate returned my call after all. Apparently there’s a service pack for Netware 5.1 that may solve my dilemma. Now to download and install it… after hours. Talk about your mixed blessings… and that’s if this actually solves the problem. Whee.
