Greetings.
Anybody noticed how slow the email relays are with this mailing list?
I sent an email "03 Mar 2004 09:18:50 -0500" and received it (as a
mailing list subscriber) "Thu, 04 Mar 2004 22:20:23 -0500". It took
something like over 36 hours.
I reckon the mail servers are being bogged down by windows worms 'de
jour' trying their best to propagate themselves. I think password
encrypted zip file attachements are the en vogue among worm writers,
atm. I'd assume the gnu.org servers are getting more than their fair
share :(
