Unfortunately that is not always the case. There are many many emails that peeps here have posted that never have made it to the list. If you are in a serious discussion and this occurs on one of your replies repeatedly (as has happened to me), then it turns into a majorly aggravating problem. One case in point was when I was posting job leads to some of the IT peeps on the expert list; namely Civileme, Dr Jung, and Mike Holt. After multiple postings to the list under various subject headings, body changes, and message id's, the email still never made it; a total of at least 15 transmissions. At different times (and different days), I should mention. In another case there was a discussion involving sound cards and hardware; my replies never made it back to the list on that one either. There are several other examples and I have run other tests but...you get the idea. Lately the problem has not been as bad, perhaps it was fixed over the holidays, or the person responsible was terminated. We can only hope.
