Microsoft Outlook in the "cloud", the "greatest thing ever invented" according to some went down for over 21 hours on Wednesday and Thursday according to to CNBC.
I don't think I've had 21 hours of downtime total during the entire 25 years I've been managing mail. Why people are obsessed with the cloud I'll never understand. Handing over your most important data to a dishonest and self-serving corporation has never made any sense to me. Then to top it all off people get upset when Apple, Microsoft, Oracle, Google, or someone else wipes out there stuff.

Yea, I have been working on a proper easy to deploy fix for this problem. Think mail in a box, but a more complete solution that automates setup of every hoop in such a way the user isn't given the opportunity to screw things up. For probably $150 you'll get everything including hardware you can actually fully control along with options for an IP that isn't on the protest or blacklists.

LOL, I agree with the sentiment, but won't go so far as using violence to dictate what others do. Although I guess that isn't what you said and I'm just reading into your statement a bit. In other words I was thinking you were implying you'd stop Microsoft from using its OS on its computers.
