Guess this might answer the question posed today by someone..........this was taken from another list I'm on. > > Many RootsWeb lists housed on the same server were > affected by some unscheduled down-time caused by hardware > problems....since March 26th. > > Mail is running again, but current messages will be posted first, > and older messages will gradually be re-introduced into the queue > so as not to overload the servers. This will probably create some > confusion for the first couple of days, when you might see an answer > before you see the original question. > > If you had posted a message / query which you haven't yet seen posted, > give it a day or two, and if you don't see it, just post the message > again. Expect to see mail chronologically out-of-order for a day or > two, so if your in-box automatically "sorts by date" mail may jump _up_ > in your in-box. > > Once the server problem was noticed, incoming mail was cached > for later (deferred) delivery, but anything posted at the same time > period when the server quit is probably lost. > N.J.Skinner White vwhite0901@aol.com "Remember the days of old; consider the generations long past."
