This may be one of those "broken as designed" things--there's no guarantee that you'll receive email in the order that it's sent. Heck, there's barely any guarantee that you'll receive it at all. :-) I've occasionally noticed that I receive short messages before long ones--maybe the mailer on the sending end or the spam filter on the receiving end is processing the shorter ones faster. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
