Good advice. Several other lists I'm on have big problems with ISPs banning list mail addresses because the same mail is going to many of their customers. Most of them sort it out and it stays sorted. However a US ISP called Comcast is a persistent offender; they seem unable to keep email lists out of their spam filters for more than a few hours at a time. There's a commercial connection between Earthlink and Comcast to do with internet via cable, not sure of the details. If the people Jean's husband is trying to email are customers of that, then I suspect Freeserve won't be able to get the problem fixed, no matter what they do. The only way to reliably communicate would be for the recipients to use a different email address like gmail or yahoo. -- Money can't buy everything. That's what credit cards are for.
