If that's just a moderation issue (though it's unlikely that _each_ message is checked by a moderator), then why my reply has been approved by moderator quickly while approving the message I've replied to was delayed for a week (even aside from that multiple other messages sent to mailing list by other people after the Antony's message have also been approved, and just the Antony's one has been delayed for some reason)? It looks more like a bug in mailing-list engine.
