Thank you for that... except that, I was talking about HOUR[n] delays not 13
minutes.
As stated in the original email, I am having reports of emails taking much,
much longer
then 13 minutes and in fact for some odd reason, I still don't have your
reply in my jd(at)cmd
mailbox.

My current last email from the list was 3 hours and twenty minutes ago but
the archives already
have them, as does gmail. If this was just me that was having this problem
it would be one thing
and easily diagnosable (in theory) but it isn't. There are others.
