I’ve tried several approaches to get this to work, but no luck. They have a service they call “Mailing Lists”, which would allow me to send one message and have it sent to everyone on the list, so that sounded promising. I worked out a script to sync the subscription status on my server with the Mailgun lists, but tried sending a few test messages. Turns out that they wipe out all existing header information, and replace it with their own, which would totally break the archives, since the Message-Id: header is key to threading. It also strips the Reply-To: header, making it impossible to reply to the list automatically. So we’re back to me sending the mail directly from my server. Apologies to all whose ISPs block me. -- Ed Leafe _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
