Now, now, Christian. Let's not get so upset over one little glitch in the system. If you get only one such problem in a day, you're extremely lucky. As to placing blame, let's not go there on this Mailing List. Rootsweb gives us FREE Mailing Lists and we shouldn't get so riled up at one such problem, even if it were the Rootsweb server's fault. It looks to me as if Rootsweb bounced back your post to your server because of a problem between the two servers communicating. No telling which server was at fault from the info in the bounce. If this had happened many times between your server and Rootsweb, and between no others, then it would be a matter of someone at either your server or at Rootsweb trying to diagnose the problem. Patience is the key. And, let's watch the language. Remember, these Lists are used by people of all convictions and some don't appreciate bad language. Regards, George W.
