I have never recieved the same post more than twice. This problem is not
related to the speed of the internet but is specific to this listserver
(with other servers I get my post back within seconds). As 'buy now' or
'sell now' recommendations are not given on this list (thankfully), I do not
think it is worth worrying about. The important thing is that posts do
eventually get sent to everyone (as seems to be happening).
