Nothing out of the ordinary that I am aware of.
The mailer delivers to all 470 subscribers sequentially. So, if your
name is near the end of the list, and if a many DNS and SMTP timeouts
occur before it gets around to delivering to you, it can sometimes take
several hours.
FWIW, I will be upgrading base.com from a 28.8k analog modem to a
128k/384k+ DSL line in the next month or two. Although I am not sure
this will appreciably speed up message delivery.
