Larry,
>Ron, to my knowledge all your postings came through.

Yes they appeared around 24 hours after I sent them and at least 16 hours 
after I was informed by my ISP that the messages were being refused and 
labeled "spam".  It has been acting that way for around a week.  I have no 
idea where the problem was/is.  It may be with my ISP or it may be with 
Spencer's end.  I have not changed a thing here for several 
years.  Somewhere else, things changed.  You cannot participate in a 
discussion by having your response show up a day later.  Just as well off 
to read the archives.  Which I have had to do from time to time.  The fact 
is, it is amazing this stuff works at all. <g>

No.  I receive my messages along with the rest of them.  That is how I knew 
things were operating as they were.  Very strange, within about 16 hours 
after I received notification that my messages were undeliverable, they 
came through to me along with the other ATIS messages.

Nope.  It is not.  I don't like that setting either.
