Continuing PaleoNet Technical Faults

["N. MacLeod" <N.MacLeod@xxxxxxxxx>]

The problems PaleoNet is experiencing aren't limited to PaleoNet alone, but
plague all the listservers hosted by the Museum of Paleontology at the
University of California, Berkeley (e.g., micropal). PaleoNet is simply so
active that an intermittent technical fault which would likely go unnoticed
on another listserver (and all listservers occasionally suffer from such
faults) gets noticed. I understand the problems, at least in part, reside
in the Sendmail program which is due to be upgraded soon. Until that
happens we will continue to try to cope with the situation as best we can.
However, please be aware that all the work that goes into PaleoNet is done
pro bono, by "avocational" listserver operators who also hold down day
jobs, fellowships, etc.
