It's 3 connections.

The archives are listed at the bottom of every message posted. I don't know who 
mathworks are, but temple.edu hosts the official archives. Is Mathworks a 
hosting company in some way associated with Temple University? If so then 
they're out of order blocking traffic to their customer. Your message is a 
little confusing.

Who are they? Is this some local reference? This is a worldwide list, so your 
comparison is lost on the majority of us.
