What th'?: "This message may not have been sent by"

[Baker, John]

I wouldn't expect the problem to show up in the ADS-L error logs.  Has there been any change in the way listserv.uga.edu configures outgoing messages, especially the "From" information?  That could produce the warning.  Has anyone who uses Gmail seen this warning on other listservs today, especially other listserv.uga.edu listservs?

Jesse, you're probably going to have to get in touch with the listserv.uga.edu postmaster to get this resolved.

For what it's worth, there is no evidence of unusual or unexpected
activity in the ADS-L error logs.
