RE: wear-hard list problems

I did finally get a hold of dkap, and he said that the problem is that my
smtp server (run by my ISP) was timing out. I'm not sure if it happened one
time and then I was unsubscribed, or that it is still happening. I almost
wonder if my isp has blocked haven.org for some reason. I subscribe to many
email lists and none of them are having problems. Also wear-hard has been
getting through flawlessly for months only to stop exactly Jan 3 when dkap
started having problems with bounced messages.

I don't have any ending for this story. :-) There's only one high speed ISP
in my town, so I'm kinda stuck.
