Turbo Tax unable to accept returns at this time???? Does this make me late?

I have been trying to file since 9:00PM CST and keep getting the following message: <<<

The Intuit Electronic Filing Center is experiencing unusually heavy demand and is unable to accept returns at this time. It's not necessary to contact Customer Service or technical Support. Instead, please try to file you return again later. The best time to file electronically is usually between 4:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Pacific time. We apologize for the inconvenience. >>>

I have all ready charged the $16.95 to my visa, but if they do not let me file until 4:00 AM PST won't my return be late?

I received this e-mail at 3pm pacific time today (4/18/07)

Dear CalCPA member:

Taxpayers or tax professionals who were unable to e-file their tax returns Tuesday using Intuit Inc. software products have until midnight Thursday, April 19, to file their returns, the IRS announced Wednesday. And the IRS will not apply late filing penalties to taxpayers who were affected by this problem.

According to the IRS, potentially up to several hundred thousand last-minute tax filers were affected by company server problems on Tuesday evening, and they or their accountants may have been unable to electronically file returns.
