To: tcg@ime.net Date: Sun, 14 Jul 1996 02:21:58 -0600 (MDT) Cc: questions@freebsd.org In-Reply-To: <31E7F369.50A3@ime.net> from "Gary Chrysler" at Jul 13, 96 03:05:13 pm X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL25 PGP2] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Looking at the headers, it appears that the delay is happening between freefall and harborcom.net. I'll scan through the mail and see if I can see any that are handled by my mailer machine as an intermediary (I'm one of a few) and check if the delay is similar. I'd wager it would be, and I'd also wager it depends on list traffic to freefall at that time, unless harborcom.net is experiencing transient delays. -Dave Andersen Headers: >From owner-freebsd-questions@freefall.freebsd.org Sat Jul 13 13:46:26 1996 Received: from ns2.harborcom.net (root@ns2.harborcom.net [206.158.4.4]) by terra .aros.net (8.7.5/8.6.12) with ESMTP id NAA32280 for ; Sat, 13 Ju l 1996 13:46:25 -0600 Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.FreeBSD.ORG [204.216.27.4]) by ns2.harborcom.net (8.7.4/8.6.12) with ESMTP id PAA23325; Sat, 13 Jul 1996 15:45:11 -0400 (EDT) Received: from localhost (daemon@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with SMTP id MAA05058; Sat, 13 Jul 1996 12:09:50 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id MAA04835 for questions-outgoing; Sat, 13 Jul 1996 12:05:22 -0700 (PDT) Received: from ime.net ([204.97.248.4]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id MAA04830 for ; Sat, 13 Jul 1996 12:05:19 -0700 (PDT) Received: from kimiko.tcguy.net (buxton-2.ime.net [206.231.148.131]) by ime.net Lo and behold, Gary Chrysler once said: > > Is it normal for a message to take over an hour to make it's loop. > > Lets say I post a message to -questions, It's over an hour before > I get my own message back on -questions.
