[pct-l] problem with the list

[Peter Shaw]

The issue is with msn and hotmail. Microsoft has blacklisted the PCT-L because it somehow got assessed as a spam generator. I gave MSN some caustic feedback over this and they basically said the server administrator has to work with them to get the block lifted. Brick is aware of the problem and is working it. The same thing happened a few months back with other email providers (such as Comcast) and Brick eventually convinced them that the list was a bona fide system serving the PCT community. 

The only way around the msn/hotmail issue at the moment is to temporarily change your list profile to another email (such as g-mail) that does not involve any Microsoft mail products or services.

Hotmail might be a problem, but it's not the only one.  Several weeks ago I stopped receiving list emails, as did others, I'm told.  I double-checked my settings, disabled the mail feature, re-enabled it, but nothing worked. 



I was out of town for a week, so I disabled the mail while I was gone.  When I got back, I enabled the mail feature and the list messages started coming in.  I use Comcast for email. 



Now my problem is that when I post a response to a thread, sometimes it gets posted and sometimes it doesn't. 



Could it be because I love corn pasta, hike barefooted, take my 6 mo. old baby with me on the PCT, eat snakes, and don't pack out my tp?

re-subscribed to the list. Is there something wrong as to why I am not 
receiving the daily batch anymore?
