Thanks for your advice Bruce, but I'm not seeing any profanity or
anything resembling it in my message. Actually, I got this error
message when I tried to send a message that only said "test" in the
subject line, and nothing else either. I am able to post to this list
using my AOL account, because I have a couple lists under my AOL
account, and a couple others under my gmail account. Don't quite get
it.

I'm not sure why I get this message. I use a gmail address for these
lists, and the OS X mail program typically, mail set to send in plain
text, but sending from the Gmail webmail doesn't work any better. The
error message is as follows:
This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification
Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:

Technical details of permanent failure:
PERM_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 12): 579 message content is not

Make sure you're not using an Evil Word in the message, such as gener
ic, pharma cy or Niger ia (spaces to fool the dim EvilWords scanner on
the moronic mail server.)
(This kept me from posting to any LEM list for two months when they
implemented this brain dead filtering because my e-mail address
includes one of them. Let me note right here that this has NOTHING to
do with Dan Knight, or any of the listmoms, they don't run the mail
servers, only the lists. )
There are probably others but those are the three we know for sure.
Clearly you can post to the list, you did to ask this question, so it's
got to be some content in that message.
I have a long, profanity-ridden rant on the sheer, mind-numbing
stupidity of running content filtering on subscription-only, moderated
mailing lists, particularly when the content filtering depends on the
words being spelled *correctly*, but I suspect you don't really want to
hear it now that you can come up with your own ;-)
Let me just say, there's a reason my sig says 'Ni!'.
