The mail arrives in at webcentral mail box, it should then turn up in  
my mac mail box, which it does unless the sender of the mail is a  
local user (the server handles all out going mail, and I receive  
anything else sent to me), in which case it turns up at webcentral but  
not mac.. Yet if a local user sends to my mac account it turns up  
there..

I suppose the simple answer is to put an alias that sends everything  
directly to the mac.com account.. But it frustrates me that it  
magically stops working for no reason and no errors are kicked back to  
me any where!

I'm not sure who is to blame for it..
