Thank you very much. I have the last 1960 messages from
the perl list so I started looking back at the dates on them and
see that it is fairly common to have a quiet period on the list
lasting several weeks.
My problem was that any messages I sent seemed to vanish
in to thin air and I mistook the quietness as an inability to
receive when, in fact, it was just being quiet and what was
broken was my ability to post messages. I never got any bounces
so Heaven only knows what was wrong. It is like finding the dog
that isn't barking.
By a strange coincidence, two new messages popped up just
after I initiated a trouble ticket with the perl list and I
thought they had fixed something. I posted again and again,
nothing. If you haven't seen anything from me since 2015, that
coincides with the year I retired from work and I haven't needed
to post until recently.
Many thanks.
Martin McCormick
