Rod,I don't know if the change is at your end or my ISPs. E-mails coming in on the automagically notify are dated 12/31/1969.
As a result, they are getting filtered by the ISP as spam because of the old date.
It is not a problem to me since I review everything everyday because some customer e-mail always gets caught. I can see some people not getting mail from the Asylum.

Follow Ups:
That's strange. You should forward an email to me with all the headers.

Rod,The ISP says they rate it as spam with a date fault like that. His opinion is that it comes from the system clock of the creating PC. His reply is below.
Thanks,
MylesJ
this, as far as I can see, are from spammers...
We have the same problem. We view it as an attack. The problem comes from the senders PC time... Like the clock battery was/is
dead.
As usual, when the ISP hasn't got a clue, they make something up. What I noticed was the date was being added by our mail server because the mail library wasn't adding that header. I suspect that their spam filter was stripping any header that was tagged as added which I doubt is very effective in catching spam.But I patched the library to add a date header, so we'll see if they like it better.

Rod,That seems to be working. I will let you know how it goes.

Rod,I looked at the header and all dates in there seem to be current. It may be the the mail server is judging the header to be incomplete and tags it with an old date. I have one other place I get mail from that does the same thing. I will send the question along to my ISP.
Details on the mail server and a tech contact for the author follow.
