At this stage of my life I consider myself not a complete moron when
it comes to technology. Given that I can (and do) run our own mail
server, I figure I should be able to open a website... :-/
Yet I cannot get to www.postfix.org *from most* locations.
From my home location, I can resolve it, whether over my own DNS or
via 1.1.1.1 (so it's not that I'm getting a wrong resolution):
PS C:\Users\simon> nslookup.exe www.postfix.org
Server: emp81-dns.simonandkate.lan
Address: 192.168.1.145
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: postfix-mirror.horus-it.com
Addresses: 2a01:4f9:6a:528d::a
65.108.3.114
Aliases: www.postfix.org
PS C:\Users\simon> nslookup.exe www.postfix.org 1.1.1.1
Server: one.one.one.one
Address: 1.1.1.1
Non-authoritative answer:

I can ping 65.108.3.114:
PS C:\Users\simon> ping www.postfix.org
Pinging postfix-mirror.horus-it.com [65.108.3.114] with 32 bytes of data:

Yet I cannot open www.postfix.org (either over http://www.postfix.org
or https://www.postfix.org) - both just timeout.
Same on my work VPN (which goes via Singapore) - resolve, ping ok...
but timeout, on http and https.
But it works (http and https) from my mobile phone (Telstra network,
Australia).
Is there some funky local redirection happening?
I know there was chat on the mailing list about http/https on
www.postfix.org earlier in the year, but this seems odd.
Simon.
