Default mail going missing


Is anyone else experiencing this ? I am quite sure I am loosing e-mail
from this list. Example, I find replies to posts, but the posts being
replied to are not there.
And I also only received about 10 posts for this weekend.

My company installed mailsweeper last week, and I have a feeling I am
loosing mail because of that, but just want to check with you guys and
girls first.

Continuous battle with my network admins just to get the work done -
sigh ...

The list was very quiet this weekend; I would have said there were less
than ten posts. With those numbers, I doubt you lost anything over the
past couple of days.

As to missing other posts, such as originals, I've seen the same sort of
problem with hotmail, though it has been much better recently. (I hope
I didn't just jinx that!) I worked with the IIUG Webmaster to get
additional information about the loss and to verify that it wasn't just
my account or setup. (Thanks again guys!) There were verifiable errors
on the hotmail side, and it was happening to many of us with hotmail
accounts. So... if your network guys can't help, I'd suggest checking
with the folks at the IIUG. They may be able to give you additional
information to help the admins on your side.

Gosh! I hope you would really have said "fewer".

You are quiet for weeks, and *this* gets a rise out of you? To borrow
from OTC, might I suggest that you need to get out more? Or at all?

P.S. I'll work on remembering the "fewer" thing... :-)
