My posts have averaged about a 40 min turn-around. Doesn't bother me,
but did have an interesting effect awhile back. I posted a give-away

original post came back to me.

If you are seeing a 90+minute turnaround, you
might want to check with your
mailserver (I co-own an ISP, so all I have to do is telnet to check
mine...) and see if there's any problems on your end...
The only time I see times that long or longer are when I send
mail to the list from one of my machines at work. I have Eudora on
my G3 set up just like I do here at home so that I can still read the
list when I have a minute but it still uses our Exchange server to
actually send the email. Since normally my mail is sent from
Earthlink's server when done at home, this appears to cause a lag
between the time I send them and they show up on the list. The other
day it took a number of hours for one to appear that I had sent from
work.
