This happens to me a lot. I am on the DEC Enet. However, before any pro-UNIX people jump on me, it only happens to net.jokes. I'm on a number of other USENET mailing lists and they come through fine. 1) Does anyone else have this problem (often)? 2) Anyone have any idea why this happens? And/or what to do about it? - Karl
