If this person is a BITNET user, I guess that is a possibility. To prove that conjecture, have the user append F=MAIL e.g., REV FIRSTNEWS F=MAIL INDEX FIRSTNEWS F=MAIL >Have you ever experienced ? E-mail delivery can be screwed up in more ways than you can imagine, especially over holidays like those occurring in the USA right now. >P.S. >He is first guy who cannot get response. >His pop server setting is wrong ? Could be that or anyone of a number of other things.
