I mean assuming I was not listed after 6-7 days can I remove the table and apply eslewhere or is this too soon. When do you enquire if everything is okay, I know I am probably being impatient as its the first one?
Being impatient is pretty normal on the first one

However, some sites can take weeks to months to get listed. Actually, there's one that comes to mind that well over a year...

It's quite impossible to say how long one 'should' wait before getting impatient, due to the individual nature of each list. Many subscribe to the 'submit it and forget it' methodology. Within reason of course...

Myself, I'd say if you're not listed within a month...either send a message to the webmaster, ask in these forums...or dump em.

Oh, and no...not all lists send acceptance/rejection mails. It's one of those learning curve things to figure out who's who and who does what...
