I've responded to people's posts, seemingly the first to do so, and then a few hours later other replies appear that have a time stamp earlier than mine! It must make people wonder sometimes why they seemingly get replies repeating what someone else has "already" said. David. |

David. and on the same tack, am I correct in assuming that some servers 'stack up' posts and download them all together? I find quite often that there is no action/life/movement on either emails or newsgroup postings, then all of a sudden, it's like busses, none for ages then 3 (and a lot more) altogether!!

Or something like that. For instance, I'm seeing posts just below this thread headed Re- newby tomato question, and Re - Echinacea, but I'm not seeing the OP to either of those. The OPs are quoted though, and both are on zetnet which I assume is relevant, but don't ask me to explain it. Steve |

Steve There's been some remark on ukfd about Zetnet being set up in such a way as to exclude posts from certain ISPs. Not being a Zetnetter, I don't know if this *is* anything to do with it but it might be. There has been a lot of spamming on that group so presumably Zetnet have decided to do something about it. -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.co.uk (remove weeds from address) |

It must make people wonder sometimes why they seemingly get replies repeating what someone else has "already" said. It can happen with people like me who are still on dial up, I tend to mark and download newsgroups and go off line to read and maybe reply. The reply is date stamped when I send it to my outbox and not when I actually post it which may be some hours later when I next go online. -- Chris, West Cork, Ireland. |
