spamgourmet emails not received

Since yesterday evening, I have not been able to receive most forwarded spamgourmet emails. I can see by searching my spamgourmet addresses from advanced mode that your system is recording emails as getting sent that I never receive. (I was able to receive the email required to activate this forum account, fortunately, so not all of them are getting lost.)

Yes, obviously, I checked the spam folder.

Since you sometimes suspect on the forum that such problems stem from the user's ISP must be filtering, I tried to use the advanced mode to change my email address to one on a different ISP, to see if things worked better. This requires a validation sent to the new email address. And this was not received.

Yes, obviously, I checked the spam folder.

Also, I am frequently getting "The server at www.spamgourmet.com is taking too long to respond." errors.

thank you

what part of the world are you in? I'm wondering if there's a network problem somewhere. The service is busy, yes, but performing well for me here in Texas.

thanks for getting back; tried on east and west coast usa

I have tried it now with email accounts located in both CA and CT. In both cases most emails are not getting through. Actually, one test message I sent myself just got through with about an 8 hour delay. But some older ones never made it. One test message I sent my spamgourmet account came back with a cannot be delivered message which I add below. I also note that other in the "General Discussion" forum some others are reporting similar behavior.

thanks!

Here in Buffalo NY several messages did not come through, but I later got a "could not be delivered" msg.
