The stuff I've posted shows up fairly quickly, but I've had another
problem. I often read replys from list members to posts that I never
received. I don't get the digest format, so I'm wondering why some
messages never get to me. Anybody else with this problem?

Yes. I think what happens sometimes is that people respond off list to
someone, who then responds to them on-list. At least that's my guess.
