the person who did this will stop. It is no fun causing others problems.

Hi Karl. As I said to you offlist, this may be just down to mail being sent to
you from the list, being bounced back to the list. I'm on a few lists, but
know that if too many bounce backs are received, some list administrators
will disable mail being sent to you. Then, as "you" have, you have to go to
your mail delivery options, and reset it to enabled.
I do hope that nobody on the list would be so vindictive as to hack into your
subscribe options, and disable mail being sent to you. That as far as I'm
concerned would be totally out of order, and just can't believe that's the
case.
I've had problems sending to some lists. Mailman for sourceforge hosted lists
was refusing to accept mail sent to various lists, and I had to change the
address I was sending from. I also had problems sending to the ntp list.
SORBS was blacklisting mail sent to the ntp list from my ISP. I contacted the
guy handling spam at the ntp list, and he removed my ISP from the SORBS
blacklist, with the proviso that if spam levels went up, the ISP would again
be blacklisted. So far so good on that one.
I think that rather than jumping to conclusions, which I hope are wrong, I'd
send an email to the list administrator, and ask why my mail deliveries had
been disabled. See below. Make sure to specify the mailing list your
referring to.
mailman-owner@xxxxxxxxxxx
All the best mate.
I agree with Nigel. My ISP's email server blocks list traffic from
Fedora/Redhat servers. All of them. But allows traffic from several
others. Two of which use Mailman.
And while they were doing that I got 'stopped'. I had to change the
email server and restart the list(s).

David my ISP could care less. He gives me the Internet and expects
me to use it. He provides the mail server and sometimes has trouble but
gets it fixed. I use it as my wife does as we want to. So I am happy.
If the ISP gets bad I will just change to my other email server
gemail. This is done by Google and yes I am klarsen1 on that. And I can
save $25.00/mo since with a web based email I can just buy the Internet.
It is quite cheap.
