There seems to have been a lot of trouble with the EASIlink connection
(the IBM financed T1 link between CERN and Cornell), see the attached
trouble ticket. Very likely the backup route for you is not working
because of (now) well known routing problems between the T1 NSFnet
backbone and the T3 one. When I checked a couple of minutes ago
EASIlink was still down.

I would offer you use of our link for mail purposes, but it doesn't
really make sense because incoming mail would probably still not work
(for that additional MX records would have to be set up).

Note: if you want timely responses on ch.network, it's best to send
mail to the mailing list gateway: network@eunet.ch.
