My Emails aren't getting through

 [1/2] from: tim:johnsons-web at: 26-Jul-2001 8:54


Hello All: It is common (in fact appears to be the rule) that emails to this list are not posted for up to 12 hours, and in fact some have to be reposted more than once. Is this a common problem? OR Is it possible that I am doing something wrong? Am CC'ing to Holger, perhaps someone might notice something awry in my headers... I'm on many other lists and most of my postings will show in 10 minutes to an hour.... any help would be appreciated. -- Tim Johnson <[tim--johnsons-web--com]> http://www.johnsons-web.com

It probably has nothing to do with your problme, but several of the major ISPs are currently reporting EMail delays due to a burst of the occurrence of a spam/virus that, while pretty well contained, has still caused some `flare-ups'. For example, @Home was reporting earlier today that they had increased storage by 40% in the short run and were still having troubles. In any event, I'd wait a couple of days for things to settle down before making any serious efforts to track down problems. You may be having a more general problem than you realize. Of course, this may be in no way related to your problem...
