Pete, MSN email has been having various problems for about a week. I
suspect you're seeing side effects of that. If my guess as to the cause is
accurate, these problems should go away in about one more week.

Over the last couple of weeks, we have begun receiving a *small* number
of bounces like
Received: from PSUVM (NJE origin LST2SMTP@PSUVM) by PSUVM.PSU.EDU (LMail
V1.2c/1.8c) with BSMTP id 1036; Fri, 9 Oct 1998 17:42:19 -0400

Subject: Undeliverable Mail
LISTS.PSU.EDU unable to deliver following mail to recipient(s):
<[log in to unmask]>
LISTS.PSU.EDU unable to connect for 3 days to recipient host.
to [log in to unmask] Since we distribute lots of mail from various
lists to those addresses (and sometimes our backlog is signficant), and
my best analysis using SMTP QUEU commands (this is VM/CMS), PING (small
and LARGE packets), SMTP dialogues (full RFC821+822) reveal no problem, I
wonder if their various MX servers are throttling or out of steam? I
don't think it is an IP-address caching problem.
I've been in contact with MSN.COM support personnel but have gotten no
where, fast.
