missing mail

[Advent Systems]

For what it's worth guy's,  I did finally get the message,  but it was 
hours later then the previous posts.  I guess it's no big deal as long 
as I got it.  I'm just wondering  why  and what could cause it to 
happen?  If there was a "normal" breakdown, either at verizon or NFLUG, 
it seems all the mail would have been held up?  I'm not that up on mail 
servers and just was wondering what you guys thought.
