[cdt-l] Help with common list problems (can't post, can't see this email) ADMIN

Ours is a slightly different problem.  We get most of the CDT-l posts 
without any problem.  (We're no mail on AT-L and PCT-L.)  However about one 
in ten never arrives.  We generally read the lists on the 'instant archives' 
so it is always odd when posts show up there that never make it to our 
inbox.  I know some individuals seem to end up in our junk folder, even 
after we've said "always allow" - but that shouldn't be the issue coming 
from the list, or is it?

>Hey all,

>     Lately I have been getting more people with two common problems with

>
>1) Can't post.  Never see my posts.
>
>2) Never get any email from the list.

>For #1, there are only a few possibilities: (in order of probability)
>
>- You're trying to post with a (even slightly) different email address
>than the one you subscribed with.  Maybe your ISP or Uni. has a
>different incoming address for you, or maybe you've signed up for a
>number of different accounts.   In any case, you absolutely must post to
>the lists with your subscribed address.  Nothing else gets through.
>That's why there's no spam on the lists.   Only exception to this rule
>is pocketmail users- they can always post.
>
>- You're sending junk attachments (outlook users?) .
>
>- You've set the mailman software to not send you your own posts.  Log
>in to mailman and change it.
>
>#2 -
>
>- Your email program or host is tossing the backcountry.net list traffic
>into a spam folder.  Check it out.
>
>- Your provider has blocked backcountry.net completely; as a spammer.
>This is due to people marking the list posts as spam instead of simply
>unsubscribing.   This most often happens with aol and worldnet, and it's
>a multi-day pain affair for me to fix it.  So, if you're not getting
>posts, and they're not in your spam filter, call your ISP.
