Perhaps I can explain why your messages are not making it to the list.

Just to quantify this supposed problem, I put the suggested entry in the
majordomo configuration on 3/23 at about 4:35 PM. From that time until now,
there have been 9 messages bounced from a total of 181 postings.

Here is what has happened to 2 of your messages:
