medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Dear colleagues,
the server does seem to be acting funnily lately, and I will notify the jiscmail staff of this situation.
General advice:
If you have sent a message to the list and it has not appeared, please avoid the natural instinct of instant gratification in wanting to see it in your inbox immediately. Sometimes -- fortunately, most rarely -- it takes time for the server to send out a message it has received; on other occasions, the problem is at the end of the member, where his/her mail box is not getting the nourishment it seeks because of glitches with the member's server.
What I often do, if I send a message that appears not to have been received by the list, is visit the list's archive. The archive is updated continuously (in theory, at least), and often a message I've not seen in my inbox is in fact in the list archive, which is proof that it has been sent.
If you should receive duplicate messages, as some have recently, please write to the list owners, off list, at [log in to unmask]; if you can forward an example or two of the problems (COMPLETE WITH HEADERS), this does help a lot. We will do our best to sort out whatever problems you do have.
That being said, today is a holiday in merrie olde Englande, and jiscmail staff are out enjoying a bit of raire Englishe sunne until tomorrow. Patience, please!
Best wishes, on behalf of Otfried, Carolyn and Dave,
George

looks like the listserv is acting up.
i got two copies of Christopher's post and mine have been sent twice, although
i've been *verrry* careful to only hit the "send" button once.
