Could it be what >you call a propagation issue? Oh, sorry, your _second_ message was the 8:58 one. But your client isn't continually asking the server "Got any more messages?". It's quite likely set to a 10 minute or longer refresh period, to avoid overloading servers. In general - just don't worry about it. If your reply was within a short period (an hour or two, say) of the first one, then the assumption should be that the other hadn't got to you yet. If it's several hours, or even days, weeks, months, then it does look silly. If you're still worried after that, then you could always do a manual refresh just before posting.
