For the record, I've been having the same problem at two
email addresses. I
guess one question is whether it is consistently the same email that no one
gets. If it's my mail gateway seeing it as spam, will everyone see it as spam?
For example I got Dan's "Partioning question (duplicate?)" email from late
yesterday afternoon, but I never got the original post (even though I see it on
the fatcity.com website). Obviously Dan never got the original post either. Did
anyone? This might help to narrow down the source of the problem.

Funny you should ask.
If you go to fatcity.com you will see that all email is arriving there unmolested.
Several emails I sent did not appear in my inbox at 2 different addresses, yet
they are on the server at fatcity.com.
The most likely problem is that something is happening to them after they
leave fatcity. The question is what.
fatcity is on an ISP (RoadRunner ) that happens to allow dynamic IP addresses,
a favorite tactic of spammers. RoadRunner therefore frequently is seen on blacklists,
though fatcity is not responsible for any of the spam.
That's one possibility. There are others.
* your mail gateway is intercepting it as spam
* your company's spam filter is deleting it.
* ... ?
Fatcity ( aka Bruce Bergman ) provides this service to oracle-l free. As such,
there's a limit to how much time he can spend on this. Bruce has become an
IS director and finds that his time is rather limited. Imagine that? ;)
The number of subscribers experiencing this problem, or at least reporting it,
is very small.
Options are to ride it out, or find a new venue for this list. As moving this list
is a fair amount of work, I'm for riding it out for awhile.

Folks,
It seems that a fair number of emails are not
being retransmitted to the list. Some of mine
and a few others have not appeared in list traffic
sent out to subscribers.
Searching by author at fatcity.com reveals that
the posts made it there, but either are not being
sent out, or getting shanghaied along the way.
I'll let you know when I find out.
I am of course, assuming that some of you will
get this one...
