I don't know whether the bottleneck is on our end (the emails go through many anti-spam filters before they reach me, and I know they sometimes fall behind). The other issue which has caused me to see replies to messages I missed is that some of the posters here are going through SMTP servers on networks segments which have been blacklisted as sources of spam. Since I have things configured to not send me duplicates when the post is to me and a list (or to multiple lists), if a blacklisted user copies me directly I don't get anything. When I identify such a user I let them know and get them whitelisted on my end, but that's hit or miss. -Kevin
