The only way a message fails to be delivered to subscribers is if there is some type of technical problem. There's no editorial control, except that after the fact, if things get too untidy, the housekeeper has been known to walk through with a dust cloth, cleaning up and urging people to make nice. --tim >> Yeah, I've noticed that the technical side of this is pretty odd. I regularly get responses to posts before I get the posts. But you have a lot of guts, Tim, going ummoderated :) Jim
