Thanks Lynne and Chuck!

EAS alert came through to my email without any problem.

Only problem I ran into was signing in here. The server was busy!

Sorry it's taken so long to respond. It took forever for me to get logged on to the forum. Then when I did get logged on the server to post this always came up busy. I received the e-mail at 1:30.

I am in NE Ohio

Thanks for your hard work!!!

Thank you Lynne and Chuck.....

Got one email at 12:05 and another at 12:35 CDT today...we were away most of the day, but as long as our comm systems are working, this is GREAT!

Just a thought, but wehat if our communications are taken out? All on our own then.

Thanks again!

I received 2 notices. One about 3pm CDT and another just within the past hour 8-9 CDT. I think I am going to have to change my address so it comes through faster - this was to my yahoo address.

Oooo, maybe 7:30pm, Mountain Time. If it were an IMPORTANT alert, I would be unhappy. Please call me instead, if you can.

Thanks!!!

Just got my "Heads-up" e-mail re second Anthrax victim. Really appreciate this service. I had gotten the e-mail on 9/11 just in time to turn the news on at 9 a.m. and catch what was happening a few minutes after it all started. This forum is GREAT!

Reasons some of you miss receiving alerts...

We're learning more and more each day about what happens to these emails...

1. Some of you who have just registered within the last 24 hours before any alert may not have been processed and distributed to the EAS Coordinators yet. Sorry, but there is a bit of a lag...we send out updates of new registrations to the Coordinators normally once per day. Usually late at night or first thing in the morning.

2. E-Mail CAN be somewhat fickle. Those among us who use their normal e-mail client such as Outlook to send out the Alerts may not find out that some of the alerts did not go out for one reason or another for over four hours. And even then, most mail systems are designed to keep re-trying for up to several days...that is why in some instances, you may receive an alert DAYS after we send it. These are quirks of the nationwide email systems over which we have no control.

3. I am now using a Bulk Email package that notifies me immediately if your email server is not responding, your email box is full or your email account appears to be invalid. It gives me the opportunity to retry immediately. I am recommending that the other coordinators seriously consider downloading this free tool for their own use as well.

Thanks for bearing with us as we continue to fine tune the process.
