Messages to Ruby List/Forum/etc. not arriving equally?

Hi,

I've not noticed a few missing messages during the last 24 hours which I
can only see on http://www.ruby-forum.com/forum/ruby but not on either
the Mailing List or the Newsgroup.

I think I read a message somewhere from Ilias mentioning the same,
anyone else seeing this?

My preferred media is the mailing list, but is it *the* preferred word
technically?

thanks,
- Markus

Can you link to the messages? I also view almost exclusively through the ML,
so I'd like to check if I'm experiencing the same thing.

It happens once in a while. Ideally you post specific messages so
gateway operators can check.

It may actually be that ruby-talk is not completely represented in any
of the systems where you can access it. AFAIK currently there are

- the forum Ruby - Ruby-Forum
- the mailing list
- newsgroup comp.lang.ruby
- ruby-talk archive at
http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/ruby/ruby-talk/index.shtml (feed from the
ML)

There are gateways involved between those systems which do some
processing (i.e. spam filtering, filtering based on message format
etc.) so it could well be that messages get dropped.

Kind regards

Ops, sure; this are all messages I haven't received yet:

^--- that one even seems from you?

Looking for Open Source Project - Ruby - Ruby-Forum (both messages)

^--- this one seems broken on the web, dated at 2011-06-14 07:28 I've
received on at 14.06.2011 07:26 with more then just the first line.

I've stopped now but there could be more.

No :frowning: I've brought this up numerous times.

Someone needs to collect more information, where are the message
appearing and where are they not?

A few thoughts:

1) From what I understand the newsgroup has been cut off, so it does
not cross-post with the mailing list anymore.

2) There is a google-group bridge at http://groups.google.com/group/ruby-talk-google\.
I wonder if it is missing posts?

3) The most likely place where there could be a problem is the bridge
between Ruby Forums and the ML.

Bumping this.

"You mean like the professor for the course? Because that would be me .
. . That "challenge" is copied almost verbatim from a problem set."

Comes through on the mailing list as:

"You mean like the professor for the course? Because that would be me .
. ."

That seems like a good test case to see what the bug here is.
