Here I am. Box has been rebooted with an updated tor debian package
0.2.0.31-1, old one was 0.2.0.30-2.

Due to other reasons this morning it was offline and I've been unable
to mail too. I am recovering a couple of messages I sent yesterday on
this ml which have been dropped becaouse (I guess) wrote them with the
wrong From email address.

I put online the logs of the last few days:
