Harold, You are a Saint! I can't thank you enough for "being there" - wherever "there" is these days.
Harrison Ps - love Raffi as I do - Quarantine may be in order. Not quite Ebola, but certainly having a similar effect on poor old OSLIST.

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 It looks like there is a better solution in a newer version of the software we are using for the OSList.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.
