Where are my comment notification emails?
Saturday, 10 January 2004 17:02I seem to be missing about half of my comment notification emails recently (in the past couple of days or so). Strange. I played around a little with my email script recently, but I doubt that's the problem.
*has an idea* *checks spamtrap* Hm... doesn't look like it. Bummer. I wonder what's wrong.
Edit: At the moment, I'm inclined to point my finger at the vanity (sub)domain which handles my email... I just got a support notification, 18 hours late, and the handoff is inside that domain:
Received: from mail by ficus.frogspace.net with spam-scanned (Exim 3.36

Observe that the mail server (ficus) accepted the email on Friday at 15:48 but it didn't make it through the spam scanner until Saturday at 09:59. (And only then could my email delivery script sort out where to direct it.) WTF?
