Could anybody offer any suggestions as to why posts from me take 3 to 4 days to turn up on the list? There does not seem to be a simple way of finding the answer in the help system. Normally I post by replying to an email. This time I'm using the WEB interface to see if it makes any difference. Thanks and regards, Richard.

Sometimes yahoo takes a while to process mail but that seems unusual. Check your bounce history. They have a habit of kicking me off when my ISP rejects something as containing a virus. There was a FreeRTOS post just today that showed that kind of delay though. FWIW this is also going via e-mail Robert " 'Freedom' has no meaning of itself.

Someone on another group mentioned a similar problem, I think it was suggested that with a large group it takes a long time to process the mail if one joined a long time ago (I see you joined in May, 2004) but I don't know if that is actually the reason.

Well, my membership dates from Nov, '03. So if that's a factor it can't be the whole reason. On the other hand I've had a time or two when yahoo had to intervene to get things going again so maybe that cleared up whatever the underlying factor is. Robert " 'Freedom' has no meaning of itself.

I just tried searching on Google for something relevant, it seems to be a common problem with other groups from time to time. Sometimes it's been caused by viruses, apparently. I suppose they have to hold the emails while they sort out the problem, as some are spread via email attachments.

I like to add that I noticed posts by email started lagging behind by up to 24 hours when I switched to web posting a month ago. For the last two or three days, I noticed that even web posts get delayed and in some occations appear to fail altogether. After I hit the send button often it comes back with a page I dont recognise. Somehow (I cant explain why) doing a "preview" then "send" seems to work better. Jaya

There are messages which sporadically do not get to me that I will see someone reply to and I'll get that reply. Then, when I check the web interface, I see that the original had gone out on the list but my copy failed to get to me. Other times, I will mysteriously stop getting mail from the Yahoo lists I subscribe to. At one point, I had to unsubscribe and resubscribe before mail started to flow again. I suspect that if my mail server is unreachable, for any reason, that Yahoo will drop the message rather than spool for later delivery. That is all I can figure out, network congestion, hiccup in a router, whatever. The message gets dropped to me. They are the only list server that does this and I subscribe to a number a lists! Good thing I don't rely on Yahoo for anything critical (nor will I). Regards, TomW -- Tom Walsh - WN3L - Embedded Systems Consultant http://openhardware.net, http://cyberiansoftware.com "Windows?

Or maybe not, the last 1/2 dozen or so posts haven't shown up in my e-mail at all. I though things had gone rather quiet ;) Now we'll see if it's only receiving that gas stopped.

Apparently yahoo groups has a large variance in message latency. I received failure notice for on 02/05 (below) and I am quite sure there was one much earlier that never made without a trace.
