As I mentioned previously, our hosting service has migrated TMP to a new data center and new IP address. Unfortunately, something about the process has broken the email system. An error is being generated whenever the server attempts to send an email; this probably means the email is not being sent. This affects any email being sent by the server, including notifications of new PMs, advertiser payment receipts, and new advertiser information. I have notified the server people about the problem, and expect they can fix this quickly.

Possibly related, using Safari I used to be able to right-click and "Open Link In New Tab" or Command-click to do the same to open up several topics from the main page. Now doing so by either message gives me a Connection Is Not Private warning and I can't get the page. I can copy the link, open a new tab, paste the link and get the page, but that's a nuisance. Chrome works fine. Safari did update the other day. This may be related to the last of HTTPS but I don't know. I'm mentioning in on the off chance it's helpful or easily fixed. It definitely makes TMP harder for me to use and less fun.

Possibly related… Sounds like a security issue in Safari. Configuration Error: mivaroot is not defined Server folks believe they have fixed the mivaroot problem by correcting a configuration file. Please let me know if you see this still. Outgoing email seems partially fixed… some emails are going out, some aren't.

Server team continues to work on the email problem. Staff members (including myself) can send from our TMP accounts, but the TMP server cannot currently send emails to any external email accounts. This affects: * emails for advertisers * email verification emails * PM notification emails I am cooperating with the server techs by giving them test webpages to try their solutions on. The errors are either connected refused, or a request to POP first (which should not occur, there is no way to POP from the server).
