Below is a message I sent to Jonathan yesterday, hope it helps.

Today I got src-2.2.0596.gz and src-cur.3228.gz properly via
the _fast mailinglists for ctm deltas.

------------------- snip ----------------------------

Sorry for bothering you again, but I still miss some email from
the freebsd mailinglists. I can only say for sure that I don't
receive all ctm updates. For example, today I had to retrieve
the following files manually:

ports-cur.2177.gz       ports-cur.2179.gz       src-cur.3225.gz
ports-cur.2178.gz       src-2.2.0595.gz         src-cur.3226.gz

I don't know if this applies only to the ctm lists but these
are the only ones I know for sure (by the numbers). However,
sometimes I see RE:'s in the other freebsd lists but never
saw the article of origin...

Do you know if there is currently a general problem with sending
out the ctm updates via email?
