Fix the problems, but this explanation doesn't wash. My ISP is run by
me and I see every message rejected by our mail servers. We have not
been bouncing email messages for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; there have
been no such messages. I believe that Richard Sexton, also dropped from
the list, is his own ISP.

I sent email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to try to resolve this problem
ten days ago. It bounced. I also tried [EMAIL PROTECTED] That
came back "unknown user". I know that other people had the same
experience.

These problems have been going on for three weeks now. If they are
being solved now, that's fine. But expect criticism and suspicion when
things go this badly wrong.
