They don't end up in the spam folder, either. Over the past few months there have been several times I've noticed replies on this list that quoted messages that I never received the originals of; and likewise messages that show up on the archive that don't show up in email. As someone on another mailing list recently responded when I brought this up there said: "It's a habit of gmail to hold back mail it thinks might be suspect, and deliver it to a small number of recipients, then wait to see if they mark it spam, before delivering to more and more recipients. This can delay messages for several days." ^ I'm not sure if the above is what happens to me; I do sometimes see things arriving out of order, but I'm pretty confident there are certain messages that just never show up. But then again my folders are so full of unread (or partially unread) threads that I could just miss it once I forget about the topic and new replies aren't being posted to it anymore to bump it to the top.
