Messages sent to my @fsfe.org address are delivered after several hours, and sometimes they get lost without notification. Is anybody else having the same problem?

I'll report this to our system hackers to see if there is something we can do to avoid such problems. BTW, are you aware of the privacy issue related to using gmail and other similar webmail systems? I'm simply asking because not many people I have met are aware and simply use them because they seem good for them.

email aliasing slow

I try to use the mail alias to point to a gmail account, but it is painfully slow. Messages sent to my @fsfe.org address are delivered after several hours, and sometimes they get lost without notification.

Is anybody else having the same problem?
