I've mentioned this before. Now that 3x Yandex Data Centers have been taken off line we see more than ever that Data Centers are targets.  Some folks are suggesting their are ~30 more to go. We also saw AWS go off line in the Middle East as well plus Fiber Optic lines have been intentionally taken off line too.

We should NOT be dependent on eM Client's EU Middleware. The internet is redundant only if we implement redundant services  -- can anyone say "DNS"?

I would rather see eM Client provide to SmarterMail a way to have our own sovereign Push Middleware for our clients using eM Client even if its only a Linux only solution -- we can VM it! Also, Push Middleware should include HA support out the box.
