Usenet? Listservers? LEPS-L?

Unfortunately the answer provided by Christopher Majka may not be of
help to everyone.  I hope no one unsubscribes from Leps-L before they
read about my ISP.  

My news server does not get all items posted to the news group.  Even
though the items posted to Leps-L may be ported to
sci.bio.entomology.lepidoptera, they do not all make it to my news
reader.  I subscribe to Leps-L and I see everything.  When I read the
news provided by my ISP, only about half of the items actually appear in
the newsgroup.

For this reason, even though I have access to the news group, I only
read the items posted to Leps-L.  That way, I know I am getting
everything.

Others may be as confused as aa051 at chebucto.ns.ca and their problem may
also be their ISP.
