[OKDXA] huh

[Mark Beckwith]

Hi Jeff,

Thanks!

It's interesting to me that I did not consciously or intentionally 
change anything on this end ever since joining a year ago, and up until 
now my posts have been successful.

I don't use any other email system, so I don't have a different one to try.

So far however, I have not paid attention to which of my computers I am 
posting from to see if that makes any difference.  This email is being 
composed and sent from my computer in the house.  I can walk out to the 
radio station and see if my posts from a different computer get posted 
okay.  On Wednesday I can try to post from a totally separate computer 
in my office downtown.

I see this email, sent from my computer in the house, is addressed to a 
few members plus okdxa at mailman.qth.net - I will walk out to the radio 
station and post from that computer and see it if is any different.

Thanks Jeff,

73 - Mark N5OT
