Delay when sending to birding-aus

[Merrilyn Serong <>]

Many thanks to the moderating team (Russell, Paul, Peter, Karen and 
Bill) for the job you do for birding-aus. It is fantastic to have no 
spam. Hope you all manage to fit in enough time to do your own birding 
between moderating sessions.
Cheers,
Merrilyn
