Bug Description

A person I follow is added by me to list A.

When this person now mentions me in a tweet, then this tweet is not always shown in the list stream for list A and also not in the home+mentions stream (but is in the mentions stream alone).
This behaviour is however not always the same, sometimes the tweet is shown in list A.
Maybe it depends if this person has replied on a tweet in which I'm mentioned or not, but I have done no testing to verify this.

Thanks for you report.

Could you investigate a way to reproduce this reliably and consistently?

I need this to discover if the issue is on Polly or on the Twitter API.

I have just done some comparison using the twitter website and it seems that these tweets are also not visible on the "home" page, but they are visible on the "@connect" page.
So the behaviour in polly seems to match with how twitter shows it on its own website.

Do you follow the authors of those mentions? If you don't, that's actually the expected behavior of the website.

I have found a tweet, which is listed on the twitter website at the "home" tab, but which is not listed in the list column.
The tweet is listed in the user column of this person and in the mentions column.

I've actually been experiencing the same issue today.

Might be issues on the streaming API. Will try to investigate further.

I noticed the tweets, but I'm still having the same problem.
Person I'm following, replied to one of my tweets to her, but her tweet is not shown in the normal list column.
This particular tweet is however visible in the home+mentions column.

Now, I have just seen that there is still a bug alert on the twitter website, so it could be a problem on the streaming api.
When you show the messages in the different columns, do you do the sorting in the application or is the message "tagged" by the streaming api?
