Hello,
I am running Mailman version 2.1.6 and recently had to move my servers

Hi
I keep seeing this error in my mailman error logs.
I've tried googling it for reasons but to no avail.
Anyone seen it before/have a reason.

I guess the point of this and other messages regarding spam is that Yahoo is
being very cautious and erring on the side of protecting their clients.

This sounds like an anitspam tactic to me. Messages addressed to multiple
recipients are deferred, since a lot of spammers won't try sending a deferred
message again; It's not worth their time or resources to keep track of deferred
messages, and then go back and retry them. A legitimate mail wil
