All,<br><br>It was pointed out to me by our IT people that "that the rejection message is coming from <a href="http://listserv.linguistlist.org" target="_blank">listserv.linguistlist.org</a> rather than from <a href="http://groups.sas.upenn.edu" target="_blank">groups.sas.upenn.edu</a>. In other words, people are<br>
sending messages to <a href="mailto:LGPOLICY-LIST@LISTSERV.LINGUISTLIST.ORG">LGPOLICY-LIST@LISTSERV.LINGUISTLIST.ORG</a>, rather than<br><a href="mailto:lgpolicy-list@groups.sas.upenn.edu">lgpolicy-list@groups.sas.upenn.edu</a>.<br>
<div class="gmail_quote">
<br>
So, it seems that some subscribers may be sending to the lgpolicy-list at <a href="http://linguistlist.org" target="_blank">linguistlist.org</a>, rather than the lgpolicy-list at <a href="http://groups.sas.upenn.edu" target="_blank">groups.sas.upenn.edu</a>.
In both cases, the name of the list is lgpolicy-list. It would be easy to confuse the two lists, especially if one's email program automatically complete an address that you start typing.<br>
<br>
If the problem seems to be something other than confusing the two lists, you may want to contact the other list's list owner at <a href="mailto:LGPOLICY-LIST-request@LISTSERV.LINGUISTLIST.ORG" target="_blank">LGPOLICY-LIST-request@<u></u>LISTSERV.LINGUISTLIST.ORG</a>"<br>
<br>So, this points to the fact that people need to look closely at the addresses they are using<br>when either responding to messages from lgpolicy-list, or when sending new messages.<br>In particular, it would also be good to NOT send personal messages to the whole list,<br>
when the intention is to send them to one person only, e.g. when forwarding or responding.<br><br>Hope this helps!<br><br>Hal Schiffman<br>

Hi, Jay,<br>
<br>
Lately, people on the lgpolicy-list have been getting these rejection notices.<br>
Sometimes their messages go through anyway, but sometimes not. Do you<br>
know of a solution to this problem? These are people who have had no<br>
trouble sending messages in the past.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>

Just wanted to forward this message. I received this rejection notice but my message did go through to the list anyway. It could be a glitch in the system. F<br>
