A few days ago there was a thread on calling R from Delphi to which there were several useful responses. Now I responded as well, with what I regard as a useful contribution. Shortly after that, I was not able to able to see the thread in my newsreader (Thunderbird). Suddenly, yesterday I could see the thread again, and now it has vanished, at least from my sight. Now.

Fundamentally, R-help is email based, so once a mail is sent, only the receiver is involved in where it gets (mis)filed.
