[Emacspeak] Re: List Administration: List changes



Hi,

I'll add my thanks to Tim C for sorting this problem out.  Based on DMARC
reports my server has received, I think you might have missed out on
receiving list messages if you subscribed with an email address at any of
the following domains:
* aol.com
* yahoo.com
* wp.pl
In addition, I'm not certain about this, but I think you might find list
messages in your Junk folder if your email address is at fastmail.com or
pobox.com.

All the best,

Tim M

P.S.  Apologies if you received this email already; I initially sent it from
an email address that wasn't subscribed to the list, so the first copy is
probably stuck in a moderation queue.
