Subject: Administrativia</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">Dear Lowlanders,</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">
<br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">Since yesterday I have been receiving what looks like delivery failure messages with reference to all Yahoo addresses on our list.</span>
<br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">After each address there is this tag: <br></span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">
<div style="text-align: left; font-family: arial,sans-serif; margin-left: 40px;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);">Deferred: 452 Too many recipients <<< 452 Too many recipients</span><br></div><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">At the end there is mention about "white-listing", but I don't know what that means:</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">
<div style="text-align: left; font-family: arial,sans-serif; margin-left: 40px;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);">X-Greylist: Sender IP whitelisted, not delayed by milter-greylist-3.0 (</span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://listserv.linguistlist.org/" target="_blank">
listserv.linguistlist.org</a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"> [</span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://164.76.102.107/" target="_blank">164.76.102.107
</a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);">])</span><br></div><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">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.
</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">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.
</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">Here's my request.</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">If you are subscribed via a Yahoo address, please be so kind as to let me know (at <<a href="mailto:lowlands.list@gmail.com">lowlands.list@gmail.com</a>> under "Yahoo address") if you have been getting LL-L mail yesterday and today. (So far today, there has been one "Etymology" issue.)
</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">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).
<br><br>Thanks in advance.</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">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?
</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">Regards,</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">
Reinhard/Ron</span><br style="font-family: arial,sans-serif;">
