I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

Two possibilities spring to mind. One is that your 'update' didn't make it all the way to the server. When you checked after updating it was in cache but you logged out or switched off before the cache was cleared.

The other is a simple system glitch (ie finger trouble) that now, after 10 years I can confess to. Simply your information got through and was held in the current store but someone managed to restore the system to a point before your update and then failed (that's what I did) to add in the latest temporary cache files.

These are of course pure guesses as I have no idea how the system is actually supposed to work but it would be well to check the next day after the overnight backup run.
