anyone else have trouble posting to this list, to me it seems like it  
takes  
forever? I am using gmail but I don’t know if that has anything to do  
with  
it.

it looks like a general problem on several google groups. 😉  
for me there are at least 3 groups with this problem.

using the GG interface is good for repyling to existing topics.  
but on this group i can only create new topics with sending a mail.

your message sent form GG interface is stuck for some reason in the  
spam filter and waits for approval.  
dont know why. there’s no statement or bugfix from google.

unfortunately it looks like that no one on this list cares about these  
messages.  
so the only way for you to start new topics is with a mail an reply to  
any existing topic with  
the GG interface. not really satisfying.

please tell me you experiences with other groups. if there any.

regards

not the expected behaviour!

some users have this issue on some groups.  
for me with two groups. this one is one of them.

but there’s no statemet or fix from google. ☹

I only use mail, so I hadn’t seen this. Is this a bug or the  
expected behavior?
