   I did get a delay email from gmail.  So either gmail's servers are 
   screwed up and accidently resending the same email repeatedly and not 
   knowing it succeeded or perl.org's mail servers are screwed up and 
   making gmail think it needs to be delayed when it's actually sent.  But 
   it's my first time ever seeing a problem.

I suspect Gmail because you and Paul are the only ones affected, and you
both have Gmail addresses.  (Perl.org is running qmail, which is IMHO
the most reliable piece of server software on the net; I've been running
the same version for 7.5 years.  No bug fixes or security updates during
that whole time.)  However, I have no explanation why Klaas-Jan and
Jerry (the other two Gmail users to post in the last three days) seem to
be unaffected.  It could be a matter of which Gmail server was used to
post the message.
