I'm sure the folks at Millennia are aware that having 4 or 5 URLs in their sig counts as so many points against the message being regarded as SPAM. My point is that RoadRunner is wound so tight in their rules that whatever point value those URLs come to will characterize the message as spam as far as RoadRunner is concerned and they block the message within one of their own hops before it could land on the email box. I'm suggesting that RoadRunner relax their rules in line with the rest of the Internet world or add a config line in their own servers allowing all messages from LegacyUsers.com because Millennia will never remove those very informative and necessary sig lines. I sometimes wonder if RoadRunner has any sys tech that knows how to config their own servers.
Anyhow, we should drop this thread now before Sherry drops the hammer on us. While it all may be informative, it isn't really helping other users in the Legacy program.

Let's see how long it lasts. Brian, for your info, Road Runner is not suggesting that Legacy change the format of it's e-mail header. Not at all. They're suggesing that it's a problem with an e-mail address or URL in their signature block which could be signaled as "spam" Tom Herson Ithaca, NY ----- Original Message ----- From: Brian L. Lightfoot To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Sent: Thursday, August 05, 2010 11:10 AM Subject: RE: [LegacyUG] For Sherry or other Legacy Employee Just a comment on this issue. I've come to expect this from many ISPs whose customers experience mail problems. They want the source to change the format of the email headers just so they can handle the email, never mind the impact it may have on the rest of the world. Here's a simple question: why doesn't RoadRunner change their rules to conform with the rest of the world? OK, I know this has little to do with the workings of Legacy but it kind of ticks me off when I see messages like this coming from ISPs whose clocks are wound too tight, especially RoadRunner who has gained somewhat of a rogue personality amongst Internet users. Once again, Millennia Corp does not run or control the list server. There merely contract for its services. Sporadic mail delivery problems can probably be traced back to the server. I personally hope that whenever their current contract expires, Millennia goes out for new bids. Brian in CA From: TH [mailto:th4...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, August 05, 2010 6:50 AM To: LegacyUserGroup@LegacyUsers.com Subject: [LegacyUG] For Sherry or other Legacy Employee I have two e-mails from a Road Runner (Time Warner) security person which explain how Legacy can prevent the user group's e-mail from being blocked by some Road Runner areas. As you know, my user group mail appears to be currently blocked. These are actions that Legacy needs to take. Would someone from Legacy respond to me privately, or through the list, and let me know where to forward these Road Runner e-mails to?
