I suggest you check the moderation log at

then it never arrived.

From the link you provided, there are five columns with headings:

Received
From
Post ID
Status
Delay Mins

Under the "From" heading are 5-digit numbers which are in sequential
order. However, there are some gaps in this numbering - for example:

44541
missing
missing
missing
missing
44546
missing
missing
44549
missing
44551
44552
missing
missing
missing
missing
missing
missing
44559
44560
missing
44562
44563
44564
missing
44566
44567
44568
44569

etc.

What accounts for the gaps in the sequence?

If this is uk.legal.moderated's numbering system and the
above-mentioned category - "status" advises whether a post has been
been accepted/rejected and whether this was done manual/automatic, I
don't understand why there should be any gaps in the sequence of
numbers.

Any ideas?
