Thanks Scott, Koos, and Karolina,

I can see that the sender is listed as Harold Shinsato via OSList <[email protected]>.

As long as people have good text in their "from" field, it should make the sender clear in our inboxes and in the archives. But we won't be able to search via email addresses :-(

Still, it seems better than risking the OSList being considered a spammer in the DMARC system - so I'll leave it that way for now until we have a better solution.

Thanks everyone for your patience!

    Harold

Hi Harold,

Thank you so much for all the work you are putting into this. In my inbox, the mail you sent was listed as coming from "Harold Shinsato via OSList" which I think is by all means acceptable.

I'm not sure what's exactly triggering this issue from Raffi's emails, but it happened again.

Yesterday 191 accounts were disabled when Raffi's email was bounced. They all seemed to be Google emails. I think I reinstated all those accounts. If you are getting this message - no need to do anything. Alas, if you're not, ... not much I say here will make any difference.

But Raffi emailed the list again today. Another festival of bounces in my inbox. This time, the google/gmail accounts seemed to be ok. But many Yahoo, MSN, Sympatico, Comcast and other accounts bounced Raffi's email - and the OSList disabled their accounts. Again, one by one, I re-enabled them today. If you see this email - no action needed.

The email companies like Google, Yahoo, etc. are implementing something called DMARC to prevent spam. Gory details: http://support.google.com/mail/answer/2451690

Apparently this is not an easy thing to fix. More gory details. http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/DMARC. For now - I have changed Raffi's account so I have to moderate anything he sends. I'm trying another experiment where the From field is changed - so this note doesn't say From Harold in your email program. I don't think this is acceptable - but I'm testing it.

It looks like there is a better solution in a newer version of the software we are using for the OSList. I'll see if I can get our web hosting company to deploy that software - but it might take a while.

Alas, I wish I could guarantee no further glitches. I'll keep you updated.

    Regards,
    Harold
