I'll try again... We are still experiencing delivery problems from the listserver. The IEEE gurus are at work trying to solve the problem. We thought it had been solved last week, but we're still experiencing difficulties. Basically, the difficulties show up as very late delivery (and occasional duplicate delivery) to the subscribers near the end of the list (which includes me). Very late can mean DAYS late. Normal time for delivery to the full subscriber list is 3-4 hours. Messages are sent in sequence to the subscriber address list, where long-time subscribers near the head of the list get their messages first, and so forth through the address list. At the moment, it appears that subscribers near the head of the list have normal service. However, subscribers near the end of the list (~700 and above, which would be those who subscribed in the past year or so) are experiencing significant delays, more than 24 hours. If the subscribers near the head of the list set their mailer with an Out Of Office message, then that message is sent immediately to the person posting the message. For posters near the end of the list, the OOO message will be received BEFORE the listserver message. (Indeed, this is the case even when the listserver is operating normally.) Please bear with us while we solve the problem. If you have further questions or comments, please send them directly to me or any of the administrators at the bottom of this message.
