Liz, Usually when a post, especially the original post, is missing, it is because the orinal poster is a digest subscriber and sent a reply to " lace-dig...@arachne.com" instead of "lace@arachne.com". The Mail Archive site is a free service that we use and it only stores messages sent to " lace@arachne.com".
So if someone posts a message to "lace-dig...@arachne.com", it is not stored in the archives but all the subscribers see it because the lace-digest address is set up as an alias for the lace list. When people reply. they tend to use the correct address, "lace@arachne.com", and those messages are archived. Hope that clarifies things.
