What you're describing is most likely just normal greylisting
behavior.  If your IP address (or that of your outgoing SMTP box)
hasn't sent mail to the server that hosts misc@ for a while, there
will be an initial delay equal to minwait plus whatever random factors
determine sender's retry interval.

No I thought I was already registered to misc when I sent that  and then noticed
that it didn't post. So I registered thinking that first message would never
post and sent another.

If someone can kick your machine, your choice of OS doesn't matter.

At least, disallow hacker to physical touch your OpenBSD box. 

You be free of threat.

 Recently I have taken notice in a growing number of articles concerning memory 
sniffing threats. Today's post at The Register they talk about the DaisyDukes 
memory sniffer. What disturbed me the most was seeing SSH mentioned. Is this 
truly a threat if I am running OpenBSD?
