I get the messages as well and it's because Cornell rejects messages rated at over 80% likelihood of being spam. I'm not sure if the Magnolia list software is capable of it, but it would be nice if they could adopt how Apache deals with it. Apache's lists send out a message like below and then automatically zero the error count when the message *doesn't* come back in error. Seems like a much better system to me.

BTW -- great product! I have http://www.entomology.cornell.edu running on Magnolia 3.5.8 and it's working beautifully. Training people in the department to use it is really easy.

I figured I was only seeing a portion of the spam...

Either way there are problems with this mailing list.
