All,

Both were a matter of requiring approval. I did the announce one last night,
and discuss was done this morning. Ben was not on the approved poster list
for announce, hence its delay. And announce was not an approved poster to
discuss, hence the second delay. I've now rectified both problems, so things
should be smoother from here on out.


If any other chairs required posting approval, let me know.
The list currently consists of myself, Bruce, Ben, and Paul.

Mark

Greetings all,

Errrr, you sent this at 23:45 LAST NIGHT? Why am I just now getting it at 10:30a.m. the next day?

Sure, I'm willing to account for the fact that I wasn't around
between 23:45 and 09:00 this morning, and that my laptop wasn't on.
However, fetchmail *just* dropped this into my GNHLUG folder, which
tells me that my ISP just received it at 10:26.

Looking at the headers, this e-mail left itchy.ntisys.com at 23:45:55
and was received by rogue.codemeta.com.  It then was received from
rogue by rogue at 06:05:05.  So, it sat around on rogue for over 6
hours?  Then it was sent from rogue back to rogue at 10:13:48, at  which
point it left rogue and made it to my ISP at 10:26:00?

Bruce, I think your drain might be a little clogged :)

It was "clogged" due to waiting approval, which I *think* I did sometime
this morning. All messages to the announce list must be approved - and I'm
one of the approvers. (Maybe Ben should be made one too!)


One of the "clogging" contributors may be that if sendmail isn't able to
immediately connect to a recipient's SMTP server, then the message goes
back in the queue and is retried "later" - I don't remember when that
"later" is - but I seem to remember its a matter of hours.

Beer Disclaimer: My memory is still somewhat foggy - I'm not sure if I
approved it last night or this morning - if anyone has evidence contrary
to the above statements, then I'm inclinded to believe them. But please
let me know so I can schedule time to sort though the log files and put
this "mail is slow" daemon to rest.
