In keeping with Demon Internet policy of performing routine
maintenance on Wednesdays between 10:00 hrs and 12:00 hrs, the
following work will be performed this week:

MAIL

   The machine punt-3 will be unavailable from 10:00 hrs to 13:00 hrs for
   upgrading. Users with mail stored on this machine will be unable to
   access this mail during the maintenance period.
   
   The machine known as post will be taken off line for approximately 30
   minutes for routine work. Users who use post as a smarthost will be
   unable to send mail during this period. Attempts to send mail during
   the maintenance period will be refused, however the mail will be sent
   the first time you connect to Demon following the maintenance period.

NAME SERVERS

   The name server ns-cache-2.demon.co.uk (158.152.1.43) will be removed
   from service for upgrading. Downtime is anticipated to be 30 minutes.
   
   Customers who have their software configured to use the supported
   nameservers (ns-cache-1 and ns-cache-2) may see DNS lookups taking
   slightly longer than usual, but should otherwise be unaffected.
    
May I take this opportunity to remind users that the only supported
name servers for our service are ns-cache-1.demon.co.uk (158.152.1.58)
and ns-cache-2.demon.co.uk (158.152.1.43). No other name servers are
supported and use of other name servers may result in unexpected
problems with your access to the Internet.

I apologise for any inconvenience the above work may cause, however it
is a necessary to perform this work in order to continue to provide
the high level of service we aim to achieve.
