both noam and rotate are round-robin entries reporting back a bunch of
IP addresses. To further debug the problem you have to figure out which
exact server you contacted. If you have access to the connection log,
watch out for a line starting with #, i.e.:

# javAPRSSrvr 3.15b08 8 Apr 2011 16:37:57 GMT T2SOLO 193.16.217.17:14580

It contains the server name after the datetime, in my example T2SOLO.

I had a report from an APRSdroid user who connected to dl.aprs2.net and
did not get his position reports relayed to aprs.fi. Maybe there is some
issue with the servers' interconnection?
