Problems with the list

For a little while some people have been denied the ability to post messages to
the list, the list server software rejects their messages.  The usual cause of
this is that the sender's email address is not the one  that they subscribed
under (sometimes masked by the redirection for incoming mail of the original
address to the new address, perhaps by the admin staff running the office email
system).

In the cases I refer to, though, the sender is still apparently validly
subscribed.  In fact it did it to me yesterday, though it still lists me as a
subscriber (stranger, the message id it invents for bounced messages contains
the username of my previous email address, which I unsubscribed and stopped
using last year - there is no way it should be harbouring and using this).  The
list server software is clearly having the odd problem.

I do not have the facility to do anything about this.  The only remedy, if it
That appears to work.

If your message to the list does not appear, feel free to mail me and I will
look to see if it has been bounced. I usually collect my messages daily. As a
matter of routine I trawl for bounced messages every 2 or 3 days.
