[thelist] Email delays....

[CDitty]

Thanks for the explanation.  I wasn't complaining, if I came off that

months ago and I didn't know if my problem might be related.

What type of hardware do you need?  I don't have a computer to give (trying 
to get a second for myself), but I may have some components you can use.
