Subject: Administrativia

Dear Lowlanders,

Since yesterday I have been receiving what looks like delivery failure
messages with reference to all Yahoo addresses on our list.

After each address there is this tag:

Deferred: 452 Too many recipients <<< 452 Too many recipients

At the end there is mention about "white-listing", but I don't know what
that means:

X-Greylist: Sender IP whitelisted, not delayed by milter-greylist-3.0 (
listserv.linguistlist.org [164.76.102.107])

I'm afraid our listserver's address got on the Yahoo SPAM list, but I'm not
sure this is so. There is always a risk of this if even one person
consistently hits the SPAM button upon receipt of our mail. I know that some
people have done so in the past. It's a really aggressive and nasty
alternative to unsubscribing.

The complicating factor is that Yahoo is one of those companies that has
grown too big for its breeches and is thus very difficult to communicate and
work with when it comes to things like this.

Here's my request.

If you are subscribed via a Yahoo address, please be so kind as to let me
know (at <lowlands.list at gmail.com> under "Yahoo address") if you have been
getting LL-L mail yesterday and today. (So far today, there has been one
"Etymology" issue.)

If you respond to this and have more to contribute, something that may be of
interest to the membership at large, please respond in the form of a posting
submission (as usual).

Thanks in advance.

I can say that I have received all issues at my subscribed Yahoo address. So
I don't know what all this is about. Any ideas?

Regards,
Reinhard/Ron
