Hi,
I reported earlier how SurfWatch was blocking access to all my sites.
When I sent out email on this topic, I didn't bother to first
communicate with SurfWatch.
At the time I was annoyed, and had the attitude: they don't have the
courtesy to tell me they have been blocking my sites for the

Aha! You're message was getting blocked because it was
larger than 10k in size. This irestriction is intended to
help prevent people from sending attachments to the list.
Try splitting your message up into several separate parts
and sending them to the list individually.
Sorry for the mailing loop problem. It should now be fixed.
I have also deleted all pending messages the system was still
attempting to deliver.
If you notice any further serious problems, please contact

Yes, but since you only signed up to [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the
last hour, it isn't suprizing you haven't seen any yet.
The [EMAIL PROTECTED] list which you subscribed to a

I'll try to keep this a little bit on-topic... Does this mailing list do
any sort of virus scanning? I know you can't post to the list unless you're
actually on the list, but any scanning going on?
No there isn't any virus scanning going on.
There is however a message limit that tends to
