OK. I JUST got an email about a post at 7 am (my time, it's now ~4:30 pm)
So, maybe...
Just hoping this won't turn into a Verizon commercial...

Ooh! Ooh! [Anybody remember Car 54 Where Are You?]
Oh! Oh! [Anybody remember Welcome Back Kotter?]
The dam's about to break! I kin just feel it!
Just got some emails, in this order:
28.75 hours late
2 hours late
6 minutes
2 minutes
3.25 hours late
based on sender's time stamp.
Hello? Is this thing on?
I guess I'm the only one who has this problem, huh?

Sorry. I set another post I created to Email Notif. and was waiting for a response.
It did say it was sent out at the correct time, but I didn't get it until a couple hours later. I'm still waiting on another one.
In any case, I shot off an email to Geoff, as this is something he needs to look into. But I know he's pretty swamped right now, so please understand if he isn't able to get to it right away.
Thanks for your patience.

I just checked the properties on the first (REALLY late) email, and it was sent at about the right time. I can't get the whole header for some reason (Outlook), but I can get it if you like when I get home.
I'm just thinking there's a whole ****load of these things waiting for me.
No biggie. It's just that I miss those things, ya know?

Maybe sendmail is swamped or something. A similar delay seems to be associated with the e-mailing of reviews from http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/

As expected, the logjam has cleared and the flood is in progress. 167 incoming messages and still downloading. (Damn_dial-up!)
Thanks for YOUR patience with my impatience.
