I was told long on another newsgroup that message routing on the web was
on a sort of what's instantly available basis, so a message could go to
a server that had time for input, but it just sat there until the server
had time to pass it on, and this could happen more than once to a
message. Things have been better recently on the other newsgroup, so we
usually get the questions before the answers now.
Scots-L has an older newsgroup software, and be thankfull it works. The
listserv software, the way it's usually configured, doesn't alway send
replies back to the list, because it wont automatically override any
return mail address of the original poster thats somewhere in his email
setup, so replies to list postings then go to him/her only.
