Am I the only one who recieved this three times? The reason I ask, my
ISP has been lousy with mail over the past 24, and I am wondering if
they are trying to recover mail I already recieved.

I only got it once. Sounds like your ISP. At least they are attempting to
recover your mail, right? :-)

I got it twice.
On a related (somewhat) note, why does my mailer (first Yahoo,
now Eudora Light) note sort the messages in the order that they're
written? Hmm...example...I get a message from 'C' which includes a
response to 'B's' response to 'A'. However, further down the list of
mail (and thus read after the first message) is 'B' responding to 'A'.
And the original message alternately appears at the top of the list,
or in the middle, or wherever. It makes reading all the threads a little
strange at times, like I'm going back in time...

It might not be your mailer. It's possible that a server between you
and ShadowRN has the hiccups and is delaying some messages. I've had
this happen a few times over the years.

It looks like it, I'm still receiving mail that I should've received
on Monday!
