[amibroker] OT - Problems with delivery of posts via email -- (was: Possible File I/O bug)

Hi Steve,
 
Over the past several weeks, I too have had posts sent by email from a Comcast ISP delayed by many hours (6 plus) or never delivered (in which case about 48 hours later I get a response from Mail Delivery Subsystem that the [group] {at} yahoogroups.com address had delivery problem and there was a Persistent Transient Failure). 
 
I don't know what causes this as I'm pretty ignorant how email clients, Yahoo! Groups and PostFix programs work.  I've contacted Comcast and they say the problem is with Yahoo.  I've sent repeated complaints to Yahoo (via the Help section as there is no direct tech support) and gotten replies that started with a bot type response of "we are looking into your report and apologize for any inconvenience...blah, blah, blah"  and have gradually gotten more responsive as I continue to complain and respond to their feed back surveys with negative ratings.  No solution, mind  you, just they now say they recognize the problem but don't know when it will be corrected. 
 
I have seen that others posting from Comcast ISPs and other cable ISPs have delays as well and so I reverted back to my DSL ISP to send posts.  Interestingly, not every one with a Comcast ISP has a problem as several others I know who post on Yahoo! Groups via Comcast have emailed me that they are doing fine.  When this first started for me, I thought I might have caused the problem as I had just rearranged my email delivery and clients on different computers.  Then I found that others also were having problems. 
 
Perhaps if everyone so affected sends in a complaint, something will actually start to get resolved.  Funny how we come to rely on a technology so completely that we take it for granted, until it gives us problems.

OK. FYI, I sent this on Monday, resent on Tuesday when it never came
through, but now it has come through on Wednesday, 2 days later.
Jeez...makes me wish Yahoo charged for this so I could demand a refund
