[Mailman-Users] Timing Question...

[Chris DiBona]

Thanks, Im thinking that's the case as well, sorry for the typos. I'm
cursed by a co-worker. 

As a more general question, does mailman work in surges? It seemed like
I'd get mails to the list immediately, and then the administrative ones in
blocks. Any comment from more experienced users would be welcome.
