Re: [ozmidwifery] Missing emails
Dear Andrea, I too have had some problems over the time with emails. However I just thought I should say that I really appreciate the opportunity to be part of this list and thank you and your organization for sponsoring the site, making it possible. Katy. - Original Message - From: Andrea Robertson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: ozmidwifery@acegraphics.com.au Sent: Tuesday, December 12, 2006 7:58 PM Subject: [ozmidwifery] Missing emails Hi fellow listers, The problem of missing emails is bothering us all. I'm in the same boat as the rest of you. Part of the problem may be the high level of email being sent generally these days - perhaps this causes problem with the sheer volume of messages in cyberspace. I have our list manager on the job and we are exploring changing the hosting of the list to better improve service. I hope we will have something to announce early in the New Year. In the meantime, can you please bear with us while we do our best to keep our treasured list working well for us all. If you notice that a message you have posted does not appear within 24 hours, perhaps you could send it again? Many thanks, Andrea -- This mailing list is sponsored by ACE Graphics.

I hope we can get a better system inplace for you all very soon - details to come!

Ah-Ha! This looks like one for the lurking geek! Weird Ordering caused by Time Effects = At 16:02 22/11/2002, Jen wrote: I've noticed to order at which emails appear are a bit funny too. Especially ones from Marilyn, I often get people's responses to her posts BEFORE I get her original post!!! I think this is how it works: When emails are sorted by time, they are sorted by the time they were *sent* - this is a piece of information attached to the email in the same way as the Subject or the From. This Sent Time is ( and must be ) set by the computer that sends the email - so if the time on the sending computer is wrong, it can cause those weird sorting effects. It is particularly bad at the moment due to daylight saving. Given that emails can be sent anywhere in the world, the Sent Time is actually the time in a fixed reference location - namely Greenwich Mean time. It is actually possible for your computer's Local Time to be correct, but for its Greenwich Mean Time to be an hour out. None of this is terribly disastorous or anything - it won't affect your emails being sent or received, but people will see odd time effects. So, the moral is a) Make sure your computer time is correct b) Tick the Automatically adjust clock for daylight savings changes option, if you have one ( under Windows, this is part of the Time Zone settings ) Getting my posts back in a different order == Jo Bainbridge wrote: I have noticed that I put a few posts on and the first one comes up WAY ages after the second has hit the list. The speed at which the mailing list can handle and distribute messages is proportional to how long the emails are. Put another way - a small email will be sent to everyone on the list fairly quickly, but a long post will take a while. So - if you send a big email , and *then* a small email there is a good chance that the small ( but later) email will be received more quickly. ( Note that saying or two lines and then quoting the rest of a big email , counts as an even bigger email! It is a good idea to only quote the bits you need for your email to make sense. ) To complicate it even further, the speed at which you get your email is also dependant on how far down the list you are. This is how you get weird effects like seeing a response to a message you haven't received yet. Missing posts altogether: Jo Bainbridge wrote: I also miss out on some of the topics being posted.
