You don't say if the message was moderated or not. You can tell from the headers. Please check. It's moderated *if and only if* it has a "Delivered-To: moderator for [email protected]" header. The absence of the word "moderated" in the Subject does *not* mean the message is unmoderated. As others have said, there's a good chance that moderated messages wait [quite] a while for the moderator to perform his/her/its duties. -- Harold Fuchs London, England Please reply *only* to [email protected]
