Comment:

 Yes, I implemented a simple fallback to scsa.msg.yahoo.com.  Load won't be
 much of an issue, though, as scsa.msg.yahoo.com is a round-robin DNS entry
 that for me always returns at least 12 hosts (of course always in a
 different order).  Implementing a mechanism using `vcs2.msg.yahoo.com`
 would be significantly more complicated, but I'd accept a patch to
 implement it.
