Can you tell me if I am on moderation for some reason, or is Yahoo slow today?
All new group members are on moderation by default. This is automatic, and is why you see so very little spam on this list - the newbies post their stuff, it's held in limbo until a moderator can review it, and if it's crap it gets deleted, if it's a valid posting it gets approved and distributed. The delay on the appearance of a newbie's post depends on when a moderator can get to it (and currently there are 9 moderators for just under 4400 members). Bob, to answer your specific question you joined on Jan 11, 2009, and were off moderation on January 13. And the Yahoo servers can be weird.... I've seen messages that I posted come back in a minute and a half, or take 11 hours. 90% of the time it's under 10 minutes. Mike WA6ILQ
