Hi Markus
Yes sometimes we (in UK) get the messages and I suspect they are dumped on
the way back to you, but I cant prove any of this. Sometimes the headers are
useful. I am not sure where the spam checker was but I have a feeling with
another German station who had problems it was not in the UK. The web has
been very slow here at times over Friday and Saturday. Sony had a hack or
denial of service on PSN which suggests there was nefarious activity on the
web last week. I find that delays delivery quite often.
