I was wondering what had happened to you. It would seem the problem is that
Yahoo who is still fiddling with things since that took over Ozemail. The
email systems have been acting up for the past couple of months.

Keep trying and I may get it. Try making it a higher priority.

The strangest thing happened. I in fact did receive an email from you but
was in the process of deleting the junk. I took a quick look and saw the
mention of COD and an address. I did not delete it and had not deleted
anything because of a hang up in the transmission of other emails when all
of a sudden ALL the emails suddenly disappeared from the screen. I thought
I was having a crash but nothing  was wrong with anything at this end.

Lately I've been getting a lot of knock backs as well.
