It is Orbeet, yes. That being said foss.h.n is not a commercial product.

No, it's the other way round : the outage was due to our previous mail 
account expiring, part of a long story about a French provider that 
would put us too far for this thread.

I've seen the new links, I don't like them either (and certainly make no 
use of the corresponding tracking). It is simply a consequence of having 
switched to Clever Cloud's standard provider for sending emails. Of 
course I noticed only after the fact, and then, well, I'd already moved 
on to the next pressing issue.

The subject is not completely closed however : we did not yet reinstate 
a proper mailbox for incoming email. Perhaps we'll be able to fix that 
when we do.

Best,
