Perhaps the BBC are using greylisting - depending on how it is setup it can cause messages in a given thread to arrive in a different order (the same would be the case if your email provider was using this). I know his happens every so often on some other lists where the provider does use greylisting. Paul -- Paul Waring http://www.pwaring.com - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
