The is a Load of horseshit from the House MIS  staff ...
I've carried larger loads on a dual-processor Tatung built 
in 1998.

Handling this kind of traffic is the whole reason for being of House 
MIS, not some act of God.

order it was received"


The House is limiting e-mails from the public to prevent its websites 
from crashing due to the enormous amount of mail being submitted on 
the financial bailout bill.
As a result, some constituents may get a 'try back at a later time' 
response if they use the House website to e-mail their lawmakers about 
the bill defeated in the House on Monday in a 205-228 vote.
“We were trying to figure out a way that the House.gov website 
wouldn’t completely crash,” said Jeff Ventura, a spokesman for the 
Chief Administrative Office (CAO), which oversees the upkeep of the 
House website and member e-mail services.

The error message in its entirety reads:

“The House of Representatives is currently experiencing an 
extraordinarily high amount of e-mail traffic. The Write Your 
Representative function is therefore intermittently available. While 
we realize communicating to your Members of Congress is critical, we 
suggest attempting to do so at a later time, when demand is not so 
high. System engineers are working to resolve this issue and we 
appreciate your patience.”
