Greg,

Do you get email from python-list?  Its source is primarily the c.l.py
newsfeed, which has been down for about five days now.  According to the
last message I saw from Barry, it seems there's a problem between Bay
Mountain and UUNet.  That would seriously impact your spam:ham ratio.  Take
a look at the statistics at the bottom of
<http://groups.yahoo.com/group/python-list/>.  It looks to me like October's
going to be a light month as a result.  If the feed isn't reestablished
soon, newsgroup messages are likely to begin expiring before they get to the
list archive.
