Sometimes that problem is not on SC's end.

Calm down, calm down.  Maybe it is a SC problem, maybe it isn't.  I'm
sure everyone wants things to be working as they should be.  Getting
into a little tanty ranty doesn't help with the diagnosis.

You posted at UTC time about midnight Fri.

I've sent in two submissions by email recently, one at 12:45 pm my local
time and one at 3:45 pm local.  Those translate to 8 & 11:45 pm UTC and
those have both been returned in a timely fashion.

So that 'proves' or indicates to me that the receiving, parsing, and
emailing back system is working perfectly well on SC's end and all the
way to my end during that timeframe which surely applies to your time of
concern;  so there's no need for me to go look at any posted SC
information anywhere.

I hereby conclude, somewhat hastily, on the basis of my own
information -- that your problem is on your end -- which includes the
possibility that it is on spamcop's end's connection to you in terms of
'forgetting your address' or something like that.

What is far more likely is that your provider or something is
interfering with your transmissions to SC or something is interfering
with SC's transmissions back to you.
