[Discuss] moderated D-list concern

I am sending this to the regular D-list and not the moderated one to see 
if there is more response/awareness than before.

Previously, I inquired about why some messages were omitted from my 
moderated D-list.  I am not talking about ones that didn't make the 
moderated cut, but ones that are supposedly included yet mysteriously 
absent when I scroll down to read them.

I never see a message written by (names provided for examples not to 
pick on anyone) Gloria Santos, Vinnie, Jonathan Taylor, Paris, Justin 
Licht, Chuong  Huynh,  Brian Hendricks,  Dominic, George Chang, and AJ 
to name the ones from March at the minimum.  Most of these people are 
regular contributers to the list, and all I ever receive is:

Skipped content of type multipart/alternative-------------- next part 
--------------

where their message should be.

I have to log onto the regular D-list archives to see what they said.  
When I brought this up before, I was led to believe it was my email that 
was blocking things, but I have dug around a bit more and.even when you 
go to the moderated D-list archives the messages appear that way.  It 
just boggles my minuscule brain why this happens.  If the original 
message sent to the regular D-list is readable, why isn't the copied 
message to the moderated list? 

I am really hoping someone can shed some light on this subject for me.  
I don't necessarily want to have my email flooded by subscribing to the 
regular list, but I do want to see what people are saying without having 
to dig it up in the archives.
