When mailing to this list there are a few things to have in mind: 1) Use the correct e-mail address. Only e-mail addresses which are already subscribed can send mail to the list. You have no idea how many bounces I get because of this. 2) A maximum of 40000 bytes are allowed. This include quoted text, signatures and finally any HTML attachments. 3) If your mail does not appear within five minutes and you have not received an error, the e-mail is probably held back due to grey-listing, which basically means that it's up to your (or your providers) MTA to resend it according to the SMTP protocol. The time between such resends varies from ISP to ISP and MTA to MTA and can be anything from a few minutes to several hours. Adrian, for your case, you hit 1) once and 2) five times. :-) Regards, -Frode -- ^ Frode Tennebø | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ^ | SAAB Microwave Systems AS | Isebakkeveien 49 | | N-1788 Halden | Phone: +47 45 24 99 39 | | with Standard.Disclaimer; use Standard.Disclaimer; |
