Python list vs google group

[T Berger]

I'm suspecting that posting to python google groups (this site) gets more responses than mailing to the python list. Am I correct? Also, contrary to what I read on the python list information sheet, what shows up in this forum does not match what comes into my inbox. I started a post here and then replied to a post from my inbox. That reply does not show up in this forum.
