> Could this be a reason for the problem? It might contribute to the problem, but I think the problem goes much deeper than that, or in a different direction. Messages just disappear for some people regardless of their choice of mail program, sometimes messages never appear in the archives while appearing on the list, and some never appear on the list for anyone, and so on. Frankly, I think it has to do with the archive system. Messages are not disappearing on other mailing lists in which I participate. Shel
