Hugo Diaz (aka "macnifico") emailed me. He's having trouble getting back on the list. Every time he replies to the subscription confirmation, his email is rejected by the mail.maclaunch.com server with a 554 error (transaction failed) that seems to be caused by a 579 error ("message content not acceptable here").

On Sunday I got two messages returned to me from maclaunch with the same error. Has this happened to anyone else?

My original message had some colons and http ip-address/urls in it. I eventually got it to be accepted by removing the http-colon. I cant think of any reason why this was "unaccepteable content" (besides it being a fluke or coincidence). I also don't understand why the server would reject text it composed itself (as is the case for Hugo).

Anyone have any ideas? He wants to get back on the list, but until he can confirm his subscription request, he's cut off!

Peace,
Drew



I have had the same problem with the webmasters list.
I finally stripped out everything but the address and the confirmation # in the subject line, worked
fine after that.
