Occassionally, the list "burps".  It's pretty rare but it can happen.
You may have also been caught by some web page caching if you were
checking the status via the Cygwin email archives web page.  I don't
know.  You're free to use the newsgroup to interact with the Cygwin
mail list but keep in mind that it's an unofficial method of access
and issues that arise from it should be directed to Gmane, not the
Cygwin list.  As Chris mentioned, you can find the Cygwin list
itself at <http://cygwin.com/lists.html>.  Subscribing is the recommended
way to send and recieve email from the Cygwin list.
