Has anyone noticed that this list server lists.linux-ha.org does not
have an MX record associated with it? I actually had to tweak my MTA in
order to join the list!

Someone may want to correct the DNS so that an MX record exists for
lists.linux-ha.org that references it's A record so that MTAs performing MX
lookups will work correctly.

See the following output:

--
>dig lists.linux-ha.org. MX

The list server does have an A record associated with it:

>dig lists.linux-ha.org.

; <<>> DiG 9.3.4-P1.1 <<>> lists.linux-ha.org.
;; global options:  printcmd
;; Got answer:

But linux-ha.org does have MX records associated with it's domain, but
it does not appear to be the list server for the linux-ha list.
