Kind of...   I'm trying to formulate a policy for my lists re
"deferred" mail, and I want it to be reasonably fair, but basically
I want to tell people with sites that chronically "defer" that
they will have to get another ISP if they want to remain
subscribed.
 
I know this may be drastic, but I'm sick of dealing with this
problem.  There's a difference between a site that is doing
maintenance (or whatever) and that defers for a few hours once
a month or so, and a site that defers mail every day.  And I
also get tired of responding to the subscribers from those
sites who want to know why their mail was late, or out-of-order,
or why they didn't receive such-and-such Digest, etc., etc.
