Yep. But maybe Mark's message has a broken path?

His message got here. I would start by talking to your boss node sysop and maybe they can trace the problem.

I suppose Mark's message is getting dropped by a system on the journey here.

Outgoing from you to me I see these:

@PATH: 333/808 335/364 221/6 1
@PATH: 333/808 335/364 221/6 153/757

@PATH: 333/808 335/364 292/854
@PATH: 333/808 335/364 301/1

I know all the systems in the third nodenumber column don't cause this. So if one in the 1st or 2nd column is causing that, which are the only routes, they must be "selectively" dropping messages... Very strange!

This is the last message of yours that arrived at Veleno:

Your other messages from this morning (approx 8 hours ago), have not yet appeared.

That's basically the same path as the reverse...

You will have to check with your boss and his uplink, that is where most likely the problem exists...

That would be of limited value. PING messages in fidonet, test netmail routing. This problem is in echomail routing.

@PATH: 333/808 335/364 ...

335/364 Has the PING flag in his nodelist entry, 333/808, the boss node, doesn't...

FYI, your message above has NOT yet made it to Veleno, despite
having received other people's messages that were posted AFTER
yours.

Here is a screenshot of the last message of yours that has
arrived at Veleno:

We don't know, because we don't know what happend to the message that didn't reach you! We can only speculate so much. You really have to talk to your boss node and his uplink if you want to find out!

nothing has changed here, really... it may be due to links changing with the recent loss of one of the top level star hubs... hopefully it'll be all fleshed out soon... -ish...

Probably some random event. Maybe veleno received it in a bad packet or something.

As someone pointed out, a major echomail mover shut down, too. As folks
were shuffling their routings, some packets may have been disrupted or lost.

1:261/38 Wasn't involved in any of the PATH's we've seen so far.

The only uplink of the boss node: 2:333/808 seems to be 2:335/364. If the problem is caused between those two, like bad packets, then start praying! ;-)
