Hi,
Mario noticed that his mails to common-lisp.net were being bounced.
I also noticed that mail to dcooper@common-lisp.net is bouncing.
I'll forward the bounced message. Is this a known problem?
Regards,
Dave
Hi Dave,
Yes, he reported to the admin address directly. (But before that, it wasn't known.)
We're looking at the best option to resolve this issue while retaining the behaviour which causes the bounces as a side-effect.
Regards,
Erik.

We have implemented two measures one of which achieves the originally targetted effect, but without breaking mail for other users: we only accept mail for local users who have a .forward file. The other is to implement a virusscanner (which I'm sure we used to have, but apparently didn't have anymore). This should help with bounces for list moderators and forwarded mail which the forwarded-to host might think is harmful.
Last night I tested with my own account, but it would be great if you could confirm the fix too.
