Hi Alex and Dean, Let me clarify. Several weeks back this was not happening. I don't post frequently, however when I posted this week there was a significant lag. Approximately 36 hours. That seemed like an unnecessarily long time for a message because (a) I've posted in the past and posts showed up in a timely fashion (2-3 hours), and (b) I could not see any reason that even if messages from me were still be moderated, that it should take upwards of 36 hours for them to be released. (For a recent post, I had given up assuming that it was accidentally squashed by the evolt.org server.)
Since I've posted to the list before and previously had message show up in a more timely fashion -- albeit many hours -- but still timely, I was concerned that recently my posts where taking 12+ hours to show up. As you pointed out in the guidelines, "it can be several hours" before a post shows up. However, my expectation is that "several hours" means something of a magnitude of 2-3 hours, not 12-36 hours. Also, as the guideline points out, "contact the list administrators". I would have done that if the moderator info was readily available. I ended up having to send a post with a COLORFUL subject line in the hopes of getting a moderator's attention. That's not exactly an efficient -- even if it is effective -- way to "contact the list administrators". > You only have to wait for approval the very first time you post.

This was not my first post, or second, or third, etc. So the "approval" never seems to have happened and my posts are still be moderated, which brings me back to the 12-36 hour lag time. So, I guess I'll know where everything stands once I hit the "SEND" button on this reply and see WHEN it shows up on the list. ...Rob ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
