Jan,

I think you are expecting your posts to appear much quicker than they do.  All
of your posts are appearing twice. You are sending a second copy because you
"didn't see your post appear".  In the meantime, the first post does appear.
When you send an email to the list, it does not usually appear instantaneously.
