If their email server database file is on the system that they either can't bring online yet or can't upgrade to work with their new server software yet, then they don't have a method to email everyone.
In theory they could copy the email database to a whole other PC somewhere and set it up as an email server blah blah so they could mass-mail us about something they don't fully know all the deals of anyway. But by the time they got that PC to work, they could have been working on the actual email server (and the other servers that need to be brought back online first).
If they simply fried (or flashed wrong) a Cisco router while all this was going on (I've seen this a lot), that would be very easy to replace if they have the configuration for it somewhere.
