Hi,
The reason is that for some weeks now, I've been having issues with
mail delays on the LilyPond mailing lists: I routinely receive
e-mails 1-2 days late, and most of the time, I see replies to
messages that haven't arrived yet. While I'm sure no information gets
lost in the long run, this nevertheless has taken the fun out of
following the lists a bit for me.
It's not just you. I am also regularly receiving emails with a delay
of 3 or 4 hours, although not as much as 2 days. See also

Does anyone know whom we could write to at GNU? This is getting annoying.
Well, in my case, the delay seems to have been occurring between gnu.org
and gmx.net:
5 8 hour lists.gnu.org 209.51.188.17 mx-ha.gmx.net 212.227.17
I had delays in the range up to 18 hours in the mail headers I looked into.
Since I changed my subscription from my gmx adress to my gmail address,
everything seems to be fine. So it seems to depend on which e-mail
provider the mailing list contents are being sent to. But I know next to
nothing about e-mail routing.
