And if you don't see it, what do you do then?
Send another?
There is an easier and more efficient way to do this.
When you send a post to oracle-l and you don't see it returned to you from the list, go to the following URL:
http://www.freelists.org/archives/oracle-l/
If your post is there, then there is no need to send a test mail to the list. The problem lies somewhere between freelists.org and your email. Experience has shown that the problem is *usually* a local one. eg. mail admin has recently mangled something.
On occasion it is a misconfigured relay somewhere among the hops the email must take to reach you.
If the email is not in the archives after a reasonable period of time, there is still no reason to send a test message.
If you've overquoted a post, it will be returned to you.
Overquoting is as follows:
The amount of quoting from other posts in your post is > 75% of the email message.
This is only checked in emails > 25 lines.
The other reason your post may not have shown up is that freelists.org has not received it. Again, sending a test message will not help.
