Membership disabled due to bounces

[COURYHOUSE at aol.com]

seems  odd some list serves have this problem and  some do not  out 
there... which would suggest  it may be a matter of the way the  listserv is 
configured.  I hear  people with yahoo mail complain  about  some list serves  but 
they also  say some  cause no  problem at  all. 
 
Most of it is a mystery to me as I have not  run a listserv on  a  server 
or a mailserver..

I get disabled regularly. My address is at Yahoo.   Currently I'm sitting 
at 2.0 out of 5.0 for my bounce score.  The  previous disabled messages came

A  fairly uneven distribution.  None repeating sooner than 5 days and  
sometimes taking up to 18 days before hitting the 5.0 bounce limit.

I  was thinking of changing my email to another provider even though I've 
had  this one for at least 12 years.  But if it's because of a configuration  
problem, then other providers may react the same way so will it do any  
good?
