Hi raul,
Thanks for the update. I was wondering if the queue was majorly backed up
from all that down time.  The message I got from gmail last time I tried to
send something seamed to indicate that the message queue was full of
undelivered messages.

Cheers!

 Hello all. The short of it is that email on the gamers list should be 
 trickling back through. This means that you should see messages even 
 from a few days ago start coming through. Now if you want more 
 technical details on why and how, read on. Otherwise, keep listing on 
 game related topics. If you have questions about this, please email 
 gamers-ow...@audyssey.org, not the list.

 What happened is that because we have over 300 members on the list, 
 many email messages were getting delayed by various email service 
 providers such as Comcast, Gmail, and Yahoo to name a few. The way 
 Mailman was configured for this list was so that this would not 
 happen. However due to the problems over the weekend with the server 
 needing to be rebuilt, things got set back to defaults. This of course 
 meant that Mailman would sometimes try to send 100 messages at a time. 
 Breaking it down. If there are 300 members on a list and 5 people 
 email in 5 minutes, that's a total of 1500 messages which get sent 
 out. 300 times 5 equals 1500. Now let's say that there are several 
 Yahoo subscribers. Mailman would bundle messages to quickly get them 
 there, but Yahoo says, hey now! Don't spam me with so many messages. 
 So to protect itself, it causes the messages to either bounce away or 
 to delay for a time. The fix is to make Mailman not send so many at 
 once, thus insuring a smooth list flow like we are used to. So now 
 that those things have been configured, mail from now on should be 
 delivered like what we are used to. However this also means that some 
 of you may either not get prior messages, or if you do get them, they 
 will be delayed as the queue clears out by your isp.

 Hopefully things will resume like normal, but if you have any 
 concerns, definitely let me know. My email address is in this message, 
 or you can always email gamers-ow...@audyssey.org.

 Many thanks.
