The problem seems to be totally with Cox e-mail. The PLUG list server is on the Cox.net network, and I see it's working fine. My Cox mail has been silent since late last night, and all day yesterday I only got about 6 to 10 messages compared to my normal daily traffic of 150 or so. I finally opened a new subscription to plug-discuss from this address, which is my "real" address for mail that I actually need to receive. ;-) OBTW, Excite@Home is still delivering mail. Nothing but spam now, and test messages; I'm fully switched over to the cox.net black hole. Vic
