I did not have any of my messages rejected by the UGA list server, but SOME,
only some messages to the list (e.g. two messages sent today by our
colleague Sebastian Daza) got marked as spam by my own ISP, heavens know
why. Messages, you know, arrive from the server, not from the list member,
so I do not understand why some of them are caught and others are not.
These server deities governing our lives and communications are as
capricious as Greek gods in Mount Olympus (or Teutonic gods in Valhalla).
Would they be appeased by sacrificing a lamb, or they would require
something more substantial? Smashing a laptop perhaps?

I recently had a posting rejected as spam. I asked, and at 05:15 PM

So it's a known problem. I've no idea how widespread; have other people
had legitimate posts rejected?
Jean, should people forward you copies of the messages for rejected
legitimate postings?
