To put some closure on this discussion: The problems turns out to be a noob issue that I have learned many times, but apparently not well enough to remember it. If you're missing some expected mail, look in your mailer's spam folder. Thanks.

That email came to me from the list with your address as From. So something is honoring your staub.us address OK. One thing you might check is reverse DNS lookup. If the sending address is not in the same domain as the sending mail server, some mailing lists will assume it's spam and just drop it on the floor.

For the Ubuntu users mailing list I needed to migrate from my Zoho address to one of my Yahoo addresses, since Zoho stopped allowing me to use the Ubuntu users mailing list a few days back, because only an usual amount of traffic is allowed. Actually the amount of traffic caused by the Ubuntu users mailing list is not unusual compared with other traffic. Sometimes mailing lists are doing something wrong, sometimes the providers start to misbehave. From time to time I need to switch from one to another email address, for almost all mailing lists. It's a PITA regarding filtering and to ensure that replys are using the correct email account. I subscribed to this list using the address I use for most of my correspondence, which is hosted on gmail, and bounces to my main gmail account, where I read all my mail. I tried changing the address to my google address, but that failed, because I authenticate outgoing mail as 'phil at staub dot us'. If I attempt to use my gmail address, the outgoing authentication fails. If I send to the list with my 'staub dot us' address, the mailing list rejects the submission as an attempt to post to a members-only list from a non-member. So for the time being, I'll either switch to digest mode or check the archive periodically. Sigh... To reference your other response, yes, I have every mail delivery option enabled that I saw (except for digest). Haven't checked the bounce score yet. I'll look into that.

Re: [xubuntu-users] Trouble receiving e-mail from this group
PS: If you log in your xubuntu mailing list account, do you see on top of the page a bounce score? It's ok if you don't see a bounce score, but if there should be one, it's an issue. Is "Mail delivery" enabled? Even if digest is disabled, mail delivery needs to be explicitly enabled. -- xubuntu-users mailing list xubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-users

[xubuntu-users] Trouble receiving e-mail from this group
Looking for suggestions as to why I don't seem to get posts to this list. Yes, I'm subscribed to the list. I have digests turned off so that I should get individual e-mails whenever there is a post to the list. I have (temporarily) enabled confirmation mail whenever I post to the list. I get these confirmation mails. I have enabled receipt of my own postings. I get these. But I have been having a discussion with another subscriber who has been responding to my postings, and the only way I know he has responded is to log into the mailing list and look at the monthly archive. What am I doing wrong? -- xubuntu-users mailing list xubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-users
