Hi Karen,

You are absolutely right, mystery solved. IDP called a short while ago to
indicate that it is a problem with their systems keeping up in College
Park. The issues does not exist in Boulder. We have now been failed over
back to Boulder and are in good shape, and since they are aware of it, I'm
sure it will get worked out soon.

Thanks for the reply,
Matt
