I've been contacting Jaeger on a regular basis for a few years and
usually get replies fairly quickly.  I emailed them recently and the
email bounced.  I called and left 2 messages with Customer
Service.  After reading your message today, I opted to let my call go
through to the operator.  When I did, I was connected, without human
intervention, back to the Customer Service number I had previously
left messages.  As I was composing this email, I received a phone
call from Susan at Jaeger, saying their email is still down and to
fax our back issue requests.  The fax number she gave me is (631) 543-1537.
