Hi Alberto yes it is a while back now but I had several cases of postings
taking 3 and 5 weeks to get reflected !!. But owners I know say it  is not a
fit and forget and list membership needs constantly checking.....to the
stage when the first couple of messages need to be moderated. There seem to
be people who bother to register manually to loads of groups and then sell
the registrations much later when moderator vigilance has lapsed. The Groups
I sub to are a mixed bag some I will only use web site access because they
are so badly compromised..... in some cases it is quite difficult to find
the real messages. But then also some groups seem like an owner
ego-trip....I visited one recently where 95% or more of the messages were
from the owner !!

Best Wishes
