Hello,

I tried to send a patch to the linux-trace-devel mailing list using 
git-send-email, and the email got bounced back to me with the message
> 553: 5.7.1 Hello [98.137.68.147], for your MAIL FROM address 
><bijan...@yahoo.com> policy analysis reported: Your address is not liked 
>source for email

After some googling, it seems like the problem is my email address has been 
banned from sending emails to the mailing list. I can't imagine I've been 
banned specifically because that was my first time sending an email to a kernel 
list. Is the problem due to the mail server banning yahoo email addresses in 
general? 
If so, would switching to gmail or my university email solve the problem?

As an additional etiquette question:
I also CC'd the maintainer in the patch, and I believe the email got through to 
him. When I get this problem resolved, should I CC him again when I resend the 
patch, or just send the patch to the mailing list?

Thank you.
Bijan
