Oh bloody heck -- I see I had about 8 aol.com addresses bounce on
8/13/22 -- so I likely have this problem too!
I think I have have dkim and spf set up properly, but who knows. I have
seen the tutorals on this list (thanks). Also the munge settings. I'll
go look for SMTP_MAX_RCPTS and set it to 5.
My yahoo.com members are receiving email just fine (lots of older people
on my list). Gmail is no longer getting yellow boxes after Dream Host
made an spf change for me.

Hi,
Yesterday I received a report from an AOL user that she's not receiving
traffic from one of my lists. The problem here is that my server logs
show outgoing mail being accepted by AOL's incoming mail servers, and of
course after that it's anyone's guess what happens to them. She says
she's checked her junkmail folder and the messages aren't there. Does
anyone have any thoughts on this? Is AOL known to silently discard mail
they think is spam for some reason? I replied to her message from the
same server and she did receive that reply, so they haven't outright
blocked my IP or something. Even if I could contact someone who knows
what they're doing at AOL, there are no error logs for me to show.
AOL got absorbed into Yahoo, which in turn got absorbed into Verizon, which in
turn split off Yahoo mail to a holding company. So, yeah, it is anyone's guess
what is happening off in Yahoo-mail land. *Yahoo* is known to greylist
mailling list posts, either because Yahoo thinks they are spam or simply
because it is getting too many messages from a given source. If the latter,
configuring mailman to send fewer messages at a time might help.
Question: are there other people on your list with any of these addresses:
@yahoo.com
@verizon.net
@aol.com
@netscape.com
FWIW, I have 99 yahoo.com members on my largest list (4300 total), 13
aol.com, and 3 verizon.net. I never have problems with these, not even
gray listing (which is not terrible when it happens, since the post is
eventually delivered). I do have SMTP_MAX_RCPTS set to 5, which may
help. I also have dkim and spf set up properly.
That said, my problems with all Microsoft addresses (outlook, hotmail,
live, ssn) were so bad that finally I just abolished them from the
list. But this was not a problem specific to Mailman.
