I posted a PAW a couple of hours ago, and so far haven't seen one
response.  I go to the archives, and there are 5 responses there, none
of which made it to me via the list.

0 for 5.  I'm not good at math, but I don't think that's a very good
average...

The way I look at things is that we all have a destiny in life - I
believe we only see the things that we are meant to see ;-)

Sort of puts you off posting when your carefully crafted prose vanishes into

If you are getting all the messages twice you are probably double subscribed.

If you are getting all the messages from a particular person twice they are probably double subscribed.

If you are getting a few messages here and there, it could be a list problem, or a problem at the senders end, or a problem with deleting messages on your mail server (in order of increasing probability).

I get that all the time:  See replies to ~my~ posts, before my posts come 
up!  It's a bit disquieting.  Apparently, it may have more to do with your 
server than the list, or so I'm told.

I also notice that from time to time, some posts of mine come on list almost 
instantaneously, and others take quite a while, up to an hour.  Again, 
server issue, not list issue.

I can't remember who told me that, but they were much more knowledgeable 
than me about such things...

cheers,

That is true, Frank. 

Some ISPs do not process mail as received but batch process it every so many minutes. That is how it was done back in the days of uucp, but it takes awhile for some of these folks to catch up (grin). 

How you have your mail client setup has an effect on it. 

How the internet routes the messages has an effect. I have seen messages from nearby routed all the way around the world to me. 

There are simply so many varibles in the way the internet works it is hard to say why things work out as they do.
