Re: Posting Lag?

Folks:

The list processor was experiencing problems starting thursday and was 
repaired on Sunday afternoon.  I was on vacation and the person who was 
supposed to keep an eye on my system didn't.

As for the actual posting lag, please keep in mind that mail sent to 
MIDRANGE.COM does not come directly to the computer.  It is held in a queue 
at my ISP (mcs.net) until I pick it up.  It then gets processed and sent 
out.  Delays of up to an hour or two are not unreasonable.
