lost submissions to OEIS

[Leroy Quet]

I have a suspicion that sometimes even when we
get the automated reply that you don't get the
sequence or comment.


Right now I am just assuming that it is taking a
real long time for you (Neil) to get around to
processing the comments and sequences, since you
have MANY emails to process.

But are sequences likely getting through to you
if we DO get the automated reply? I know we can
never be certain. But have you gotten any
complaints of missing sequences or comments from
those who did get the reply?

Thanks,
Leroy Quet
