I wasn't (and still am not) sure this was so, at least not for me. My inbox stayed empty during all that time, although by watching list archives I saw traffic on mailing lists to which I am subscribed. So clearly something was wrong with incoming mail as well. Doesn't it go through exim that crashed? Also, messages I sent directly from fencepost (from Emacs running there) did seem to arrive, at least to one mailing list to which I posted. How did that work, when exim was down? Do local clients use some other MTA? Thanks for the other explanations.
