I have wondered -- do other folks occasionally miss single posts too?

Combing the April mail spool:

  grep X-Mailing-List: aprilsofar | sed 's/.*\///' | sort | awk -f foo.awk

I get

31387 is missing
31483 is missing
... (and 16 others from a range of 31365-32787)

Seems that 1.3% of this April's posts never reached my inbox.  (Even some 
[UPDATES] posts were missing here, so I had to get them from one of the 
archives.)

Just wondering,
Helge
