Lag in Message Posts Appearing?
In every group I belong to or moderate, I have noticed a lag in the time I post a message on the site to the time the message actually appears there. It can take many minutes before it appears. I see this on Nutshell_Cubbyhole, LiteratureReadingCircle, and 19thCenturyLit. Is Yahoo aware of this problem? Are they working on it?

Hi,
Unfortunately a couple minute delay can sometimes be common during high traffic times on your ISP's server or on our servers.
We will not investigate such issues until the posts are several hours late, as that could indicate a serious issue.
Please let us know if the delays get worse.

It could be your ISP's server delay, or Yahoo's. None of my groups have a post delay. As long as the posts are going to the group, the issue of the slight delay will probably fix itself no matter whose end it's on.
