Some mailing list filters and/or spam filters flag mails with too many recipients so that they need to pass through moderation first. The typical threads on this list are short and have few recipients while longer threads, due to the list policy of adding every participants to the Cc, will tend to have more recipients. So there may a bias against long-running threads with multiple participants with regard to timely delivery. And frankly, if I were a list moderator and software asked me through this sort of coincidence whether a mail should be delivered or not and a glance at it shows nothing but insults, wild accusations, threats and so on for the umpteenth time, I'd consider twice clicking "Accept". Whether or not I ultimately did so, this would likely contribute to the delay. -- David Kastrup -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
