I signed up for the Server | General Discussion mailing list using an e-mail address I created at my web host, and through which I have received numerous e-mails without problem. The subscription went correctly. I then attempted to send a message to the GMane newsgroups which mirrors the list. The message was sent without error. I then received a Gmane authorization to have the message sent to the newsgroup, then replied to that and received a further message from Gmane saying that I was now authorized and my original message would appear on the list within 10 minutes. Finally I received a message from Gmane:

'This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

mysql@lists.mysql.com <mailto:mysql@lists.mysql.com>
SMTP error from remote mailer after end of data:
host lists.mysql.com [213.136.52.31]: 552 spam score exceeded threshold (#5.6.1)'

What followed was a copy of the original message. When I queried GMane about this they told me the problem was from the MySql list, not them.

I then unsubscribed to the mailing list and subscribed using a completely different e-mail address from my ISP provider, through which I have received numerous e-mails without problem. Once again the exact same error occurred.

I am not a spammer and have never sent spam of any kind.

Here is the full header of the returned e-mail:

Why is my message failing when sent to the Gmane mirror for this list but succeeding when sent directly to this list as I am doing so now ?
