Obon Festival in Japan

Obon is a Japanese Buddhist custom to honor the departed spirits of one's ancestors. According to the tradition, sprits come to visit once a year around this time and departs when the Obon is over.

Many people take vacation during this time and today, August 16, is the first day of work after a few days of vacation.

Any morning after the vacation, we see peak in email traffic. Many people download may be a week worth of email on Monday morning.

We host a few hundred thousand email accounts from Japan. Many of use are at the office watching the traffic to make sure we do not overload our system. We are experiencing two to three times the email traffic from Japan, but our email system is handling them without any hitch.
