[Eril-l] Issues with ebsconet

EBSCOnet is still down here, too.  But I'm getting the usuals with invoice
and title and eJournale change information.  So something behind the scenes
must be working.

I really can't believe this outage has gone on for more than a week with
just the generic messaging on the status site.
