Since tz(a)elsie.nci.nih.gov is currently failing, I'm forwarding this message from Sean Coffey to the time zone mailing list. For now, please send time zone messages to olsona(a)mail.nih.gov.

mailing list glitch

March 5, 2008

Due to the appearance of a standard-issue DNS entry for elsie.nci.nih.gov (which trumps the mail exchange--MX--entry that's the only one there should be), mail to tz(a)elsie.nci.nih.gov has been getting dropped since February 21. I'm working on resolving the problem; in the meantime, please send time zone mail to olsona(a)mail.nih.gov, an address that still works. I'll forward the mail in a way that avoids the DNS problem. My apologies for the inconvenience. --ado
