Dear Prof. Blaha

I have checked my spam inbox and no, none of the email that my gmail
account automatically archived as spam was coming from Wien2k, in THIS last
period.

However, in the past sometimes it has happened , that's true, that I have
found some emails from Wien2k in the spam box (one, or two over more than
one hundred spam email).
But considering that I am lazy in empting my spam inbox, those one/two
emails over more than one hundred were corresponding to a period that was
spanning more than 3 weeks.

So, strange that 5 or 10 bounces are generated in a period of 3 weeks
(which is the frequency with which I have to renew the membership).

In any case, the problem is not only detected by those who have a gmail
account (lyudmila has mail.ru)

Thanks for your attention
Fabiana
