What were you trying to do?
send mail to several mailing lists:
* gsc-official (which is a fake list that we bcc: to
gsc-official-private which contains five lists)
* gsc-appc
* maybe others
What's wrong:
messages go through up to a week late. this includes both
original messages and bounced versions of bad usernames.
This is almost undoubetedly due to a bug on the SGI's. A fix has been
developed for this and has been in testing. Tonight a patch release
went out for the SGIs that should correct this and other problems. I
do not believe it had anything to do with any specific mailing list,
or user.
