It's not you. The list is hosted at a place called freelists.org. The servers there are REALLY busy and if they are doing any maintenance or are getting hammered by a spam run then it takes a while for incoming messages to get posted and sent back out by the servers. There have been days in the past when they were doing upgrades and had a lot of the servers offline that it took over 6 hours for messages to post. It doesn't happen often and it's a really cool service for free.
