From: the-beach To: Message-ID: Mime-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG It took me three mail servers (MTA) before I could get mail through to this list. I finally noticed that reverse to me from Charter was working and used my Sendmail that came with freeBSD, which is what I just should have tried first, but... My ISP, Charter in Miami, doesn't have their reverse set correctly for their mail servers nor does my co-location in San Francisco which is att. I emailed them and Charter told me I was crazy and att didn't respond. You got to figure that very few mail servers are as paranoid as hub.freebsd.org or else these big ISPs would be getting complaints like crazy, right? There's already one layer of security in that you must subscribe, why add another that no one else seems to care about. Is it a Postfix or a Majordomo thing? stat=Sent?
