    I just downloaded my e-mail from the ISP server and lo and behold there were two e-mails in there from November 15, 2003!!! :eek:

    One was from a friend with an AOL addy and one was Spam with a Yahoo addy.

    Not sure but I think the one from the AOL addy was received once before.

    Looked at the Message Details and source and all the dates were Nov. 15/03.

    Anyone got any ideas why these e-mails took so long to get here???:confused:

    BTW I do check for e-mail several times a day.

    I had an experience similar to this event. I sent an e-mail to an individual, unbeknownst to me the address was wrong. I got it back, as "Undeliverable" of course, 2 months later!!

    Lets see...Cyberspace?, ....Martians?,.......Gremlins?, et all.:confused: :D

    It seems to me then, the only explanation has to be some of those servers are having trouble reading the Header Info in the Packets.:D
