It's not your ISP... something bit the digest and it stopped working. After it had been defunct for a couple of days I checked debian-user on the web and found there had been plenty of traffic on the list, so I emailed the listmaster and he confirmed that it was a problem at debian's end. A few days later he found the problem and fixed it, which is when the 70 missed digests went out. -- Pigeon Be kind to pigeons Get my GPG key here: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x21C61F7F
