Sometimes readers report not receiving their E-Sylum issue by email. If that happens to you, please check with me to confirm your address is on our mailing list. Next, check your spam folders to see if it's ending up there.

If you are on our list and just not seeing the issues at all, it could be that your Internet Service provider (ISP) is blocking it for some reason. If your email address ends in "aol.com", then your ISP is AOL. Contact your ISP's help desk about the problem, and ask them to "whitelist" the following: esylum@binhost.com, our server (lists.capalon.com) and my email address homren@gmail.com.

Doug Winter and Dave Bowers had been having these problems, but hopefully they've been taken care of now.
