missing mail

[Advent Systems]

Sorry for sending the previous post before I was finished but I'd like 
to add my first post on this subject was not meant in any way to 
criticize the mail list. Please look around at other lists to see what a 
great list we have here. I'm all for improving things that really need 
improving but sometimes we get busy with things that really don't NEED 
fixing. When I questioned the anomaly I was more wondering if someone 
(not on our list) could be intentionally diverting the mail for 
inspection or whatever reason.
