Slightly OT: possible ISP/mail server issues

Al Gulseth-2
(I say "slightly OT" because it involves an issue receiving messages from the
Elecraft list. Personal to Eric: my apologies for posting a reply after you
closed a thread - as noted below, your message to that effect finally arrived
much later.)

Does anyone else on this list use any of the Centurylink family of companies
for their ISP/email, and if so, have you had any issues receiving list
messages? (Note that the following had also happened some time back, but I
thought the issue was resolved.) Yesterday I noticed that some inbound
messages were replies to other posts which I had not received. I logged into
my account on the list server and noted a bounce score of 1.0. I then looked
at the reflector archives and saw the posts I hadn't received. This morning
when I checked my email (I use a POP client rather than webmail) I received a
flood of several dozen Elecraft messages, including the ones I had seen on
the list server page yesterday but not received. (l'm guessing that the
mailserver retries sending a bounced message after a certain period of time.)

I'm asking this because if I'm the only one on a Centurylink system who's
experiencing this problem they'll try to tell me it's something with my mail
setup. If someone else on the list is using Centurylink and having the same
issue I have more ammo to get them to look at their end.

TNX/73, Al
