It is also "just-one-of-those-things" with emails. I have had email
take over 36 hrs (37 hrs 47 min and some seconds) to go from one side
of the office to the other. I reckon it is web sprites, the 2nd
millennium's version of the Kobold.

The reason for the delay in posting, followed by both posts being sent
within a minute or so, was that the posts had been held for
moderation. None of the moderators was available until this morning
(one of them chasing birds in Central Australia, not that I'm
jealous...), so your messages were held in a queue. I considered
passing only the second one, but I wasn't really sure if the two
messages were identical.
My apologies for the slow service, but this is part of life on Biding-
Aus. The upside is that nearly no spam gets through, also because of
the humans who pass or kill messages manually.

Subject: Delay when sending to birding-aus
I noted with interest Bob Inglis comment that he had sent the same
message twice to birding-aus as the first one appeared to have been
lost in cyber space. You may have noticed that I too have sent the
same message twice ( regarding flying-foxes) - sent yesterday
afternoon and suddenly appears on the forum today after i had sent
it again - my apologies for the duplication. It raises though an
issue that I find happens very often ( not always) when I post to
birding-aus - that there is either a long delay or sometimes the
post never appears. I wonder why this is, as I dont ever appear to
have these time lags with other email addresses/forums.
Anyway in future I will resist the temptation to resend for at least
24 hours, as frustrating as this might be.
Does any forum member or administrator know why such a delay would
occur when posting to birding-aus?

PS - I wonder how long this post will take to arrive
