Well, Juno and RootsWeb have been having problems communicating again. In case some of you missed the last go 'round, here is the problem: When RootsWeb sends messages from the Lists to users at Juno, it usually takes a few seconds. Juno receives the mail and then sends an acknowledgement to RootsWeb and the connection is broken. As has happened twice now, Juno, for some reason, won't receive RootsWeb's mail right away and the connection stays open. While this is happening, RootsWeb can't receive mail or send out other mail. This time Juno held the connection for a long, long time and the folks at RootsWeb had to break the connection themselves so other business could go on. Don't know how long Juno hung up RootsWeb, but the last time it was for several hours. Anyway, the only recourse RootsWeb has is to remove ALL the addresses of Juno users until the problem at Juno is remedied. These addresses are removed from all the Lists, so you Juno users will get no messages while this is going on. Karen of RootsWeb sent out a message today saying that Juno appeared to be functioning properly again and that she had added all Juno addresses back to the Lists. If you didn't receive any mail for a while, that is the reason. You should be back on the Lists again. Sorry this has to happen, but until Juno gets some tweaking done to fix the problem, this may happen again. Now, I don't want any of you replying to my post here on the List, starting a new "flame" war over whether Juno was at fault or not. IT REALLY DOESN'T MATTER! Juno wouldn't receive the mail, and wouldn't relinquish the connection, which hung up RootsWeb. I don't want to hear any arguments here on the List defending Juno and shifting the blame to RootsWeb. The folks at RootsWeb are knowledgeable enough to know what the problem is and if they say it is Juno's fault, let it be. You can email me privately, but, I say again, DO NOT start arguments here on the Lists about the problem. We have better things to do than argue over who is to blame. SgtGeorge
