TSGL: List mail timing problems?

Glen,

I'm somewhat glad that I'm not the only one ... My main problem anyway is that I don't get to see most of my own messages, unless I look after them on the web. After a thread has run for a while, a week or longer, I tend to forget what I may have said in the past, unless I can look it up.

Yesterday I've changed my email address for this subscription, hoping that this may improve things.

It would be great if our list-managment could throw a glimpse into this matter and maybe clean up the server to spare us these glitches in the future !

  Tilman,

  I don't have any answers for you...but I too, have experienced all of the
  aforementioned problems in the past couple of weeks.

  Hi,

  I'm having this and similar cases with tsgserver emails repeatedly: 

  1. on day 1 I receive a query from our list, 
  2. one day later or so (day 2) I assemble kind of an answer and send it off
  3. that very day 2 several other people reply
  4. that very day 2 the original poster writes: Thanks, problem solved.
  5. on day 3 my own answer pops up on the list, now pretty redundant.

  Another version is: I'll receive several list-answers to a query I haven't
  seen at all, the original posting itself comes in last, maybe even a day or
  so later.

  My latest example is RATs inquiry about 'Computer won't shut down'. The
  original question came in today (22 Oct) while it was sent 4 days earlier -
  see the copied header A. below. Where has it been during that interval?

  RAT's 'Thank you' message came in one day earlier - already on 21st of
  October, and seems to have been sent off on 20th Oct !? Here's the header B.
  for this one too.

  Am I reading the headers correctly?
  Can anybody out there see from the headers where the delay for the original
  inquiry did happen?
  Any other ideas? I hesitate to contact my provider as long as I don't have a
  clue as to what exactly happens.

  Please try to answer to this before you get to see it ;-/>
