Hi Arnoud,

Neither can I from either my ISP or through pair.com's SMTP server in
the USA.  I get a bounce with the bizarre message that
legal at lists.gpl-violations.org is an unknown recipient.  I end up
connecting to lists.gpl-violations.org's MX's port 25 and handing over
the email manually.

I have reported this but they couldn't see any problem at the
lists.gpl-violations.org end.  I think it's over zealous anti-spam
measures.  Whatever it is, it's a real PITA.  Who knows how many other
people it's affecting who give up?

Here's the bounce:

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at relay01.pair.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

<legal at lists.gpl-violations.org>:
213.95.46.72 does not like recipient.
Remote host said: 550 unknown user
Giving up on 213.95.46.72.

Cheers,


Ralph.
