[Nfb-kzoo] Gallaghers vs. McGueness

[David Andrews]

On occasion this does happen, although I think much less so then a 
few months ago.  Things have been fined tuned, and almost all of the 
mail goes out immediately.  In general, the mail that doesn't go 
immediately has a good reason, or it is because of internet variables 
beyond our control.  We aren't perfect, but better.

As an example, I noticed the other day ... we sent out a message to 
the nfbnet-members list, which is over 5000 addresses, and I looked 
about 15 minutes later, and it all was delivered.  The mail queue 
seems to stay between 100 and 200, mostly problem addresses that 
ultimately time out.  Before we started fiddling it was generally 
between 1000 and 1500.
