====================
Comment from George-
I think it's a more complicated matter than Dan implies, and further investigation may be worthwhile. All is not well. Dan's
comments, above, do not seem relevant to the problems we have suffered.
How can it be that both Robert Gainer and I (and maybe others), on different continents, should simultaneously receive a backlog of
16 ancient Nav-l mailings, that we had missed over a period of 4 months? And how can it be that others didn't? Where have these
messages been accumulating, and what has caused them to disgorge?
How can it be that postings sent yesterday, from Bill and from me, have taken 30 hours or so to reach my inbox?
If Dan would like to take it up with Webkahuna, I can offer full header information: for example, for an email message sent early
December, arrived yesterday. Do they show any interest in such matters?
