Dunno, unless somebody from Red Hat - fearing imminent unemployment - has elected to receive emails of new postings on this board but has been made unemployed in the meantime and has therefore been removed from Red Hat's email user list so their emails are now bouncing.

Wouldn't surprise me, given the state of the tech markets at the moment.

Anyone who better understands than me how email works or who has other ideas please feel free to contact Mr Davies with suggestions.
