Your message never made it to the list then. The list is protected
against non-subscriber posting, otherwise I deal with  spam
messages per day.

... Maybe. I believe the precedent is that the message counts iff it 
was made in a good faith attempt to communicate with the other list 
subscribers.

First of all, "a majority of the list sees it" isn't the standard; if
a message is sent via a public forum and it reaches one player but not
all of the rest because their email servers happen to be down, the
other players should have heeded Rule 478 and ensured they could
receive messages.  To consider such messages to not be published would
probably violate R101.

On the other hand, in a case where the sender of the message didn't
take the reasonable step of sending email from an address that was
subscribed to the mailing lists, I don't think eir rights are being
violated by bouncing the message.  It's trivial to subscribe the new
address to the list and of course e retains the right, if not the
ability, to send from eir previously-subscribed address.

The PerlNomic case is probably a bit more questionable; PNP was
sending messages from its registered and previously-subscribed address
which stopped being delivered because the previously-valid address had
become bogus. Arguably that's an R101 violation, however unreasonable
it would be to demand that the Distributor accept email from a bogus
address.

Hold on here.  Now we get to the point where a legitimate communication
is held up.  Does this violate R101 participation rights?  -Goethe

Haha. It is all for naught. ais523 was trying to continue eir
long-running streak of winning once a month.

Since e failed to remember to actually Monster-deputize for the
Assessor, that streak is now over.

Way to be careful in the final moments, ais...
