personal_submersibles@psubs.orgSubject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] If you ever think you're "banned"
Hi,
in another thread I clicked on a link to a yahoo forum sub group, a number of
the people in the yahoo forum thread used to contribute to the psubs mailing list
and were complaining or commenting on being "banned" from the psubs mailing list.
Other than one person (who made it clear he didn't want to contribute to psubs
any more), I think these people are mistakenly thinking they have been blocked
or banned from psubs.
Most likely what has happen is their email provide/ISP has placed psubs.org
on a spam Black-List. There are a number of different spam black list systems,
most of which have a high rate of false positives (i.e. blocking a domain or
email address from sending mail to their server when there is no spam). This has
happened to me at least three times (earthlink.net is my ISP) and it has happened
to other people I know as well (who thought they had been banned!).
If you stop receiving email from psubs, and you send a test email and don't
receive it, please don't assume that you are "banned". Contact your Jon,
he will most likely have the bounced message that you didn't receive which
will contain info about why you are not receiving psubs mail. You should
also contact your ISP and ask them to unblock psubs.org email addresses.
Jon, I hope you don't mind me directing people to contact you if they are
not receiving psubs mail, I know you are busy! And thank you for all your
work administrating the email list and website.
Thanks!
Ian.
