Hi Randall

No, that is not why a lot of people repost unfortunately, what you ran
into was the mailman instance that administers the list had stopped
processing for a few days. This is very rare, I think it has happened 3
or 4 times in the 13+ years it has been running.

Once the queue processing started again it caught up. Hence a flurry
of email. Fortunately this is very rare, and unfortunately, no there
are still impatient people :)
