Is this "groovy" or what?

In my posting to
http://www.corfid.com/vbb/showthread...ight=telegraph
I said
"my daily bulletin from the UK's Daily Telegraph
mysteriously ceased several months ago yet when I checked their site my free subscription still is listed, I even tried changing to another email address to no avail.All very distressing as I did nothing that I know of to merit this and there is no block on their URL.Neither do any of my Google alerts arrive and as strange not a single advice of any replies to topics on corfid to which I have subscribed has appeared in my inbox for about the same lengty of time
Am I alone in this problem which has really p...ed me off
So if anybody found a reason for this I would be overjoyed to find the solution"

"John, I have experienced the same trouble as you with Daily Telegraph. I am still listed but I do not receive the daily newspaper on line. Really weird."
Well good news and bad news.
First the bad news:-
I still fail to get the Daily Telegraph despite trying to sign up with a different email address
but prompted by Susan I checked my regular hotmail email account's blocked sender list and found there and deleted
the webmaster at corfid
the google alerts
an odd Yahoo group
a subscription to bulletins from Tech Republic
a couple of friends including Char
(I think I deleted the telegraph too)
Now once an email address is on the blocked sender list all emails from that address are summarily sent direct to the trash bin
Now whilst it is possible to inadvertently mark an incoming email as junk, which conceivably could block that address,
that is not the same as taking the positive step of actually blocking the address, as far as I know that takes a very definite
action. This I patently did not do.
The point is that I am now receiving notifications of replies to my corfid subscribed topics again and also the flow of GL Google Alerts,
but strangely not the daily Telegraph bulletins.
Of course in the meantime the google alerts have usually been highlighted by the charming modem maderator or little non-orphan Annie , but they have so far failed to mention a striking not to say "groovy" tour map site:-
An alert today took me to:-
Gordon Lightfoot tickets Utica June 25th √ 5 tickets for sale
tickets for gordon lightfoot in Utica New York June 25th
http://gruvr.com/band/lightfootofficial/
showing a North American map detailing most of the concerts for 2009 yet to come
with some omissions:-
March 14,Florence IA
March 15 Saginaw MI
April 17 Thunder Bay
April 18 Sault St Marie
I have not completely checked those in our local area (a few of which we will be able to get to) but here is a screenshot of them

(the complete map is quite a large screenshot and is too large to display here so I'll attach it as a large thumbnail)

Great. A ticket scalping site. They even sell tickets that aren't on sale yet (Utica).
