That won't work. It will still test the address and reject it. > The dickhead who manages this list has fucked it up and I cannot subscribe There's a reason for it. With the traffic that goes on that list (300 odd emails per day) and large numbers of people sunbscribed (probably many thousands), they don't want to get any addresses on the list that will bounce and inconvienience everyone on the list. Your email address has been identified as one which is likely to cause problems for them so they refuse to subscribe it. Thats their right. Have you tried the email address that you used to post to this list?
