RE: OT: Why do I receive the mails late?

Oh...I dunno...it breaks up my day to figure out the order of some of the posts. I just figure it's an artifact of mailing over the internet, with propagation delays and traffic and whatnot, and our own mail server doing it's intrusion and virus detection 'thing'.

I suppose if you switch to digest mode the messages would be in order...maybe?

Just my 2¢...
