Dear Sounders, The following is from Glen Stewart. Brother Stewart provides us the server for our subscription list and he has some information you posters will be interested in. Moe --------------------- From Glen ---------------------- Due to some stability issues with some anti-spam software here, I've been evaluating a replacement. That new software has been turned on for just the mail coming to freegroups.net. (This is includes our soundofgrace list. - moe) The new software uses some novel techniques to deter unwanted email. One of these is called "greylisting", and you will notice a 1hr delay on the very first email it receives from your ISP. After that, it lets mail thru without delay. Please contact me if mail delivery to your group @freegroups.net becomes a problem. I can assure you that this change was made with as much advance planning and research as possible, to assure that it wouldn't be a catastrophe from day one. If we run into too much trouble, I'll switch back to the old software. Thanks!
