Route:  adelphia => speakeasy => blumfamily

Delay: speakeasy, 1 week.  Somehow that item didn't get from speakeasy
to your server in a timely fashion.


Incidentally:

housekeeping1:  .spam is for posting only raw spam, no raw spam is
allowed in .help or spamcop.  .help and spamcop are for discussing spam
issues and posting the trackers like you did.  If you are going to post
a tracker and a question, post into .help or spamcop not .spam.  No one
goes to .spam because there is only [supposed to be] raw spam in there.

housekeeping2:  newsgroup postings should be in plaintext, not html.  I
don't know where that is configured in your Groupwise newsreader.
