It's not necessary to wait a whole day for a reply. They can been seen nearly immediately unless your news server is very slow. In that case, I'd try reading it via google groups.

Messenger is great for keeping up with personal friends and aquaintances but this newsgroup is a lot better for it's purpose because posts are viewable by everyone, and archived makeing future reference to them easy. As it is I find myself answering the same questions repeatedly.
