FYI, the list has been slow since I joined it (8 months ago) and usually takes over a day for mail sent to the list to appear. Last week though it reached a peak, when some mail took 8 days to reach me. By a very, very long way, this is the slowest list I've ever seen (and I'm on another 7 lists here which manage to do just fine so I don't think that the problem is at this end!).
