Bill and Listmates,

We can get this confirmed by Dave Haupt who is the assistant DJML Moderator.  Dave please correct me if I am mistaken.  

I suspect that the emails that Bill refers to were held by the DJML software for the Moderator's review.  I'm sure Dave saw them and released them.  

One reason posts get held is that if someone who is not a member posts to DJML.  If the software does not recognize the email address from whence the post comes, it will automatically hold the post.  This prevents SPAM by people who are not members.  

Once in a while a member of DJML will post using a different email address.  Even though the poster is a member, The software doesn't recognize the email address and holds the post for review.  

Sometimes the software will hold an email if it is too long.  

There might be other reasons.  If so, Dave can enlighten us.
