[78-L] Solution designed for bounces

78-L Mail List 78-l at klickitat.78online.com
Fri May 2 15:30:23 PDT 2014


The recent bounces problem at 78-L has also happened to the ARSC list and thousands of other email lists.  This is due to policy changes, at yahoo, msn, aol, hotmail and others.  This affected a number (perhaps 50) of our 450 members.

THE FIX:  Notice that this message does not say who the original sender is.  This is because the From: header must now say 78-L at 78online.com, and not the email address of the original poster.  The 78-L emails send to you can no longer have the original sender's address in the From: field, else yahoo, etc will bounce them back to 78-L.

(1)  For now, please sign your emails to the 78-L list in the body of the email with anything you want,  your nickname, or the first part of your email address, so we know who posts the email.  I will have a fix for this soon where the top of the email might have a line added saying the original poster, or have an added header with the original poster.

(2)  Yahoo, aol, comcast, live.com, hotmail and msn.com received a message like:

  > Your membership in the mailing list 78-L has been disabled due to 
  > excessive bounces The last bounce received from you was dated 
  > 01-May-2014.  You will not get any more messages from this list until 
  > you re-enable your membership.  You will receive 2 more reminders like

If you clicked on the link to re-instate, all should be good now.

If you did not, then you are not receiving this message.  I will probably contact
these members directly or just re-instate them.
