- I'm beginning to suspect that the gateway through which I originally subbed
- is down. Somehow when I subbed from cc, I managed to bypass that gateway and
- link directly into the bitnet system through another. If that was the case
- then the only messages I would be receiving on wombat would be those that
- didn't have to pass through the 'sick' gateway..... and that appears to be
- the case.... but I know little about such things, so I'm just guessing. I
- have had similar gateway problems on another list before.... so that could
- be the answer.
