I'm getting as much as 12 hours difference. And I'm getting them hours before they show up in the archive. The message I sent just previous to that one is in the archive (but I don't have it yet????). Here it is cut and pasted: ***** OK....I've noticed some strange behavior from the list. On several occasions (read that as particular posts), I receive a post as much as 12 hours before the archive reflects it as having been received. Frex: At 1:12 am CST I received a post from GD Akin [Wishing For SF in Korea] that shows as sent at 1:03am CST. But in the archive shows a time of 16:03 PST. That would imply that I received the post 17 hours before the server did......at least I think thats what I'm seeing. I know I read this particular post at about 5am local time, but the list says it just appeared recently. Anyone else seeing screwy timestamps like this? xponent Posted At 5:02pm CST Maru rob ***** xponent Confuserated Maru rob _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
