missing e-mail

I've definitely been losing some e-mail recently. I don't know what's happening, but several times in the last month I've not recieved an e-mail that I was expecting, queried someone, only to be told that they had indeed replied.

E-mail is never 100% reliable, but I've never noticed this many losses before. It seems unlikely to be spam filter problems as I'm losing them from people who have previously e-mailed me without problems. And the repeat reply from them is arriving fine.

Then again, I know so little about spam filters that I could be wrong.

Is this a common problem or is it just me?

If you send me an e-mail and never get a reply, it may be worth double-checking (though it may just be my very slow normal rate of replying).
