Terribly sorry about that!

Last elections (for O and P) we generated such a flood of unexpected 
email that the admins at CMU thought something had been hacked. This led 
to the introduction of a bunch of rate limiting and other mitigation in 
the election software (yay us) This time I had a script submitting 
information that honored the rate-limit and it took an entire week to 
submit all the emails ... and still some folks did not receive one (but 
we also can't track down what happened, since it's someone else's hosted 
service)

The summary is - I think that we may have grown too large to continue to 
make use of the free service that CMU is providing- although we're 
obviously grateful to them for providing the service thus far.

We've started some initial discussions about hosting our own (after all, 
our mailing list server sends way more mail quite successfully every 
day) but haven't made a full plan yet.
