It does NOT always happen, and when it does it does NOT always work the same way. Yet another thing to be aware of, and to deal with as necessary, nothing more as far as I can see. Darrell

If you didn't subscribe to the list you wouldn't have been able to post a message to the list and you wouldn't be receiving the mail...so somewhere along the line you DID subscribe.

Things seem to be better on my end here. Looks resolved to me. I figured it would be, just be patient and wait for them to get to work on Monday.

I get the LO-List and never subscribed to it.

It may have something to do with what was happening to the RW servers this weekend as can be seen by the various messages being discussed here and on the Board owners lists, too. Apparently, the problems seem to have been resolved, so hopefully things will be back up and working correctly shortly.

This has been going on for about 24 hours now (give or take 6 hours or so)...I remember seeing this going on yesterday afternoon. Being that it's Sunday, I didn't really expect to see a resolution to it until sometime today. I'm sure RW is working on the issue now. -David Reed > Yep...apparently after reading all the other LO mail this morning I found > out that there was glitch on Rootsweb servers... > > -----Original Message----- > From: JLA > Sent: Monday, August 13, 2012 7:00 AM > To: David E.

Actually, David, if you look at the headers from David Cann's posting, he sent it Friday...so it has been going on since before that time! On Fri, Aug 10, 2012 at 9:34 AM, David E.

Yep...apparently after reading all the other LO mail this morning I found out that there was glitch on Rootsweb servers... -----Original Message----- From: JLA Sent: Monday, August 13, 2012 7:00 AM To: David E.

Good morning, David, I was going to reply and say that I had gotten messages at Earthlink from Rootsweb...but then noticed your message was sent on Friday morning...and I am only just now seeing it when I get up. I will say that I am rarely online on Saturdays so I would not notice anything spectacular there. I did get Rootsweb mail yesterday so again nothing unusual. In looking back in my deleted messages, I do see where I did (near as I can tell) not get any messages on Friday. Anyways, all appears back to "normal" although I do understand that normal is relative! LOL Lainee -----Original Message----- From: David E.

Something shut them down Thursday night. Now the messages are flooding since this late afternoon, am still seeing some dated last Friday, others yesteday. I suspected something was wrong early Saturday morning and inquired Joan Y. off list. She confirmed something was wrong with the servers.

Rootsweb went down 10 PM central Thursday Did not come back up until about 2PM Today (sunday) Last time down for a while it took over a day to catch up on the queue. If it works like last time new current posts will go through and the older ones will come later. -----Original Message----- From: Diana Gale Matthiesen DianaGM@dgmweb.net I sent messages to two of my lists about five hours ago, and neither has come back.

The headers on your message show a 7 hour internal delay within rootsweb: Received: from lists2.rootsweb.com (lists2.rootsweb.com [127.0.0.1]) by lists2.rootsweb.com (8.13.8/8.13.8) with ESMTP id q7D4MxLB014690 for <vanes002@umn.edu>; Sun, 12 Aug 2012 22:24:27 -0600 Received: from mail3.rootsweb.com (mail3.rootsweb.com [192.168.26.64]) by lists2.rootsweb.com (8.13.8/8.13.8) with ESMTP id q7CLVe0U010953 for <LISTOWNERS@lists2.rootsweb.com>; Sun, 12 Aug 2012 15:31:40 -0600 So there seems to have been some internal issue that has been resolved. Nothing about this on the rootsweb help page, though.

I sent messages to two of my lists about five hours ago, and neither has come back. I checked the list archives, and they are not there. I also realize no other messages have come through on any of the RootsWeb lists I subscribe to. Is anyone else experiencing messages not getting through? Of course, if all of RootsWeb is down, this message won't get through, either... Diana

I have a listmemeber who periodically reports list problems. I tried unsubbing and re-subbing him a few weeks ago. It seemed to help at first. Now he said he has not gotten email from my list sent a couple of days ago and an email sent to another list did not show up. He sent a test message to my list over an hour ago and it has not come to me or the list archives. I looked at the headers in a message to me and found: Received-SPF: fail (google.com: domain of membername@utvinternet.com does not designate 213.233.128.45 as permitted sender) client-ip=213.233.128.45; Authentication-Results: mx.google.com; spf=hardfail (google.com: domain of membername1@utvinternet.com does not designate 213.233.128.45 as permitted sender) smtp.mail=membername@utvinternet.com (I removed his email from this) Granted this is the Gmail response and I did get the message, but wondering if RW is also getting this and it is causing problems? I have another list member with the same ISP who does not report these issues. I have asked about his Spam Folder and so forth. Just wondering if anyone has a thought. Chris

I have not received any mail from any of the Rootsweb lists I subscribe since the 9th of this month. Is there a problem with the lists, or just with my subscriptions?

Hi, I know this is not a pure List problem. My NY-TROY-IRISH-GENSOC list also sponsors a website at RootsWeb which in the last day or so has been hacked and one or more URL's to a site in Russia plugged in. Access to RootsWeb for their websites has not yet replied to our problem inquiry of this morning other than to acknowledge its receipt. If any list owner has had a similar experience, I would appreciate hearing from them off list. Thank You, Brad Miter TIGS List Admin

I received ABSOLUTELY NO RW list mail overnight last night on my EarthLink account, and given the number of lists I have or subscribe to that is unheard of. Before I report it again, has anyone else out there found such a thing this morning? I am also sending this message to see if I get it back on the list as well. David E. Cann decann@infionline.net
