<p>Hey I tried sending an e-mail about 2 hours ago to <a href=“mailto:college@fas.harvard.edu”>college@fas.harvard.edu</a> with TEST in the subject line. There’s supposed to be an automated response, but there was none. Anyone else have this problem, or is there something wrong with my e-mail?</p>
<p>A response should have been sent to your e-mail address by now. I did that and I got a response in less than a half hour.</p>
<p>try again, and if it doesnt work in an hour, play around with your e-mails settings, make sure no blocking is enabled, and if you have hotmail, add the harvard address to your 'safe' list.</p>
<p>yeah, there's no blocking, and <a href="mailto:college@fas.harvard.edu">college@fas.harvard.edu</a> is on my list of contacts, actually :) dunno, just tried it again</p>
<p>hmmm. i would say if you have another e-mail account (and the time), send a test e-mail from that and see if you recieve one there. if not, then its a problem with the service, not your e-mail account.</p>
<p>Even though it's supposed to be an automated response, it's quite slow. I had to wait for a few hours, too.</p>
<p>I had to wait for a few <em>days</em> last time I did it. It was over thanksgiving break though, so I'm thinking they might have shut down their computers...</p>
