It’s become so bad with me – I guess I’m not getting about one post in ten – that I have the ADS-l archive running in the background, frequently refreshed.  All the posts are there, and arrive within seconds, but not all of them (including my own last two posts) manage to reach my inbox.

Sorry, I replied directly to Robin about this. Yes, there's a default setting that you don't get copies of your own posts; that setting can be changed. There's no reason on the ADS-L side why other messages wouldn't go through--likely a problem with ISP spam filters.
