Hans's comment (sorry, Hans, to single you out, nothing personal!) reminded me to remind everyone: If you have questions about the list that are administrative in nature (as in the unspoken question behind this duplicate message - "Did my message get sent out?") please send your query to the list administrators: [email protected] and we will endeavor to help you. Always search for your message in your own mail application to see if your message went out - most systems have a "sent" folder of some sort, which is a good indication that it was actually sent out; sometimes the application files your own mailing-list messages away for you, bypassing your inbox (e.g. Gmail); and you can check the list archives, here, as well: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Here are a few reasons why you might not be seeing your own message: - Gmail, for instance, helpfully refiles your own list messages off into your "All Mail" folder, skipping your inbox entirely; other mail systems may do the same thing. - Your account could be "moderated" - meaning that your messages get held by the system until a list admin can look it over to make sure it is appropriate for the list. (We check that it is in fact origami-related, that it is formatted properly, etc.) Once you've proved you're not a list troll out to disrupt the list (it has happened...) and you ask the list admins (via the address above, NOT our personal email addresses) then we will de-moderate you. - Or it could be that your ISP is getting overaggressive with its spam filters, or something similar. - The list archives misbehave sometimes, and very occasionally a valid list message does not show up there. The list admins can tell you definitively whether the message was actually sent to and delivered by the list server, so for this and any other administrative-type question, please contact us! Thanks, Anne for the list admin gang
