I just received the following from Tim, the list administrator at
qth.net, who provides the free list server for the Elecraft list.
In general , it looks like once you are subscribed to the list for 24
hours with a new address, you should automatically be white-listed,
eliminating any global spam blocking of your elecraft list postings.
This type of blocking may occur though in the first 24 hours after a new
address is subscribed.
Also, it is always a requirement that you post to the list from the
-exact- same email address that you subscribed with. Any other will be
blocked as a spam source. (We get hundreds of those attempting to post
every day.) If you wish to use multiple addresses to post, just
subscribe each one and then set your email preferences page to 'no mail
delivery' for those that you will only be sending from.

Eric,
Anyone that is subscribed is white listed within 24 hours of their
subscription. If they try to post with an email address that isn't
subscribed to your list, it won't get posted anyway until you do
something about it.
There is no other way that I know of to deal with this other than to
just let the spam in.

Once again, my emails to elecraft reflector [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]> are
being bounced as shown below because I am located in UK. This happened back
in July and is completely unacceptable. Please can you get your spam
rejection system sorted out so this does not happen again?
Thanks
Graham
