Just to give you some idea of how things have improved …
Before this upgrade, the absolute maximum messages we were able to deliver in an hour, per server, was around 350,000. Since this upgrade, we ...]]> http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/09/27/green-lights-across-the-board/feed/ 0 http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/09/18/all-systems-go/ http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/09/18/all-systems-go/#comments Sat, 17 Sep 2011 23:12:01 +0000 Richelo http://www.imnicamail.com/?p=1083 We’re now running all pending campaigns, but, instead of it starting every minute as normal, we’re spacing it out, and starting a new run every 10 minutes. We’re doing this to ensure that the huge backlog of campaigns waiting to run does not again backup the whole system.
If all goes well, we’ll switch everything back to normal schedule tomorrow.
New hardware should also go in next weekend if all goes according to ...]]> http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/09/18/all-systems-go/feed/ 0 http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/09/15/drastic-measures/ http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/09/15/drastic-measures/#comments Thu, 15 Sep 2011 20:50:39 +0000 Richelo http://www.imnicamail.com/?p=1081 This is NOT anyone’s fault, but, right now, mail is delayed by days, and not hours, and this is not good for anyone.
So, we need to take drastic measure here to 1st get caught up with the MTA reading in email.
This is what we HAVE to do right now to get things moving back to normal as quickly as possible…
As sent campaigns are now taking days, instead ...]]> http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/09/15/drastic-measures/feed/ 2 http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/09/14/slow-sending/ http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/09/14/slow-sending/#comments Wed, 14 Sep 2011 10:37:47 +0000 Richelo http://www.imnicamail.com/?p=1077 Please allow me to explain what the problem is, and what we’re doing about it…..
Some of the explanation below get’s a little technical. Please bear with us, as it’s all important.
ALL of the issues below contribute to the slow sending in general. I will however start with the most severe one.
What I will do, is list the issue, and then what is being ...]]> http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/09/14/slow-sending/feed/ 4 http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/03/16/please-help-us-to-help-japan/ http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/03/16/please-help-us-to-help-japan/#comments Wed, 16 Mar 2011 13:24:16 +0000 Richelo http://www.imnicamail.com/?p=831 Our thoughts and prayers are with all people affected by this terrible natural disaster.
We have put our heads together to see if we can make a sizeable contribution to one of the organizations which is helping Japan get back on it’s feet.
We no longer sell 100K lifetime accounts, but, we will put one ...]]> http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/03/16/please-help-us-to-help-japan/feed/ 13 http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/03/09/new-help-desk/ http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/03/09/new-help-desk/#comments Wed, 09 Mar 2011 13:15:32 +0000 Richelo http://www.imnicamail.com/?p=828 We’re still using the same software from Kayako, but, now we’re using their latest version.
Not only that, but, we’ve moved the Help Desk off our server, and we’re not using Kayako‘s hosted solution.
This means that even if our whole system, with all our servers goes down, you will STILL be able to get to our Help Desk! NOT ...]]> http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/03/09/new-help-desk/feed/ 4 http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/03/09/slow-sending-update-resolved/ http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/03/09/slow-sending-update-resolved/#comments Wed, 09 Mar 2011 12:25:05 +0000 Richelo http://www.imnicamail.com/?p=825 This past Sunday night, 6 March, we switched over to our MONSTER database server.
The immediate effect was nothing short of amazing!
Site loading speed in general, and sending speed in general has quadrupled!
We are over the moon with the dramatic speed increase!
We’re NOT resting on our laurels though! We’re still fine tuning our code, as well as the whole back-end infrastructure.
Not only that, but, we’re keeping a ...]]> http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/03/09/slow-sending-update-resolved/feed/ 0 http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/03/03/important-update-on-imnica-mail-current-status/ http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/03/03/important-update-on-imnica-mail-current-status/#comments Thu, 03 Mar 2011 13:45:06 +0000 Richelo http://www.imnicamail.com/?p=822 Please read this entire post as it contains very important information.
Right, where are we at with this SLOW database?
Our new super fast database server has arrived, and basic setup has been done.
This is also one of the main reasons for this post….
Due to the physical location of the current main Imnica Mail server, we will need to move it so that it is in the best possible place for the fastest possible speed to access ...]]> http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/03/03/important-update-on-imnica-mail-current-status/feed/ 2 http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/02/25/whats-going-on-with-imnica-mail/ http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/02/25/whats-going-on-with-imnica-mail/#comments Fri, 25 Feb 2011 12:18:23 +0000 Richelo http://www.imnicamail.com/?p=816 Slow sending.
About a month ago, sending of email started slowing down considerably.
We have spent almost every waking moment, working on this issue. We had 3 teams working on this.
One was operating system, one was database, and one was the main Imnica Mail application.
All three groups worked like crazy and came up with all kinds of ideas as to ...]]> http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/02/25/whats-going-on-with-imnica-mail/feed/ 6 http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/01/03/imnica-mail-in-2011/ http://www.imnicamail.com/2011/01/03/imnica-mail-in-2011/#comments Mon, 03 Jan 2011 11:17:06 +0000 Richelo http://www.imnicamail.com/?p=786 From all of us here at Imnica Mail, we would like to wish you, your family and your business, the most amazing year ever for 2011!
