Problems with blogger and nebula

I had some persistent problems with updating the blog via sftp to the nebula.fi servers. The root cause in the end was that after a server upgrade Nebula started to filter incoming ssh connections according to a whitelist. Blogger.com (or whatever address they're internally using) was not on the list and the symptoms to my directions were just timeouts after another.

Co-incidentally I've had some gmail problems lately so I already had started to think alternatives to Google services. The problems with gmail are not over yet and there's no apparent reason. Let's see how the year 2008 will begin..
