Charles,
Thanks for your help with this. I'm afraid, however, that this local subnet
might include thousands of RoadRunner customers, including, it now seems, Orion
Knox who lives on the other side of Austin. (I'm in Hays county.) I checked
with one RR tech support person (probably not a good one) who says that they
can't help -- hardly surprising. I wonder who else checks that particular
blacklist. I haven't had this problem before and I'm subscribed to at least two
dozen mailing lists.
Anyway, thanks for the info on gmail. I'll look into it.
I also appreciate your work in setting up and managing the TexasCavers mailing
list.
Best regards,
--David

David, someone on your local subnet is sending out spam, my anti-spam setup
checks the blacklists for domains and ip ranges that are active and known
spammers.
You have two choices, you can either complain to your ISP and they can work
get off of the blacklists, or you can subscribe using another email, for
instance gmail.com
I highly recommend gmail, its a great service with no intrusive ads, and you
can even use your own client with it if you like, but their webclient is
top-notch.
Let me know if I can help further.
Charles

Dear Charles,
I've been unable to resubscribe to the mailing list after unsubscribing
about a month ago. Below is an example of what I finally receive 2 days
after any attempt to follow the User's Guide instructions at
texascavers.com -- that is, by sending a message to
texascavers-subscr...@texascavers.com.
I'm poor at interpreting this kind of info, but it appears that all my
messages to texascavers.com are being intercepted by a spam blocking
service. Evidently only some people are being affected. Carl Kunath, for
example, has no trouble contacting texascavers-h...@texascavers.com whereas
I can't. I've not had this problem resubscribing to my other mailing lists.
I'm hoping you can help! Thanks.
