Help, I can't get emails

I'm not surprised. The list software is rather broken; after sufficient bounces, it suspends your subscription and sends you a token you can use to reenable it. Problem is, this token expires after three days, but it waits a week before sending you another one. This leaves a four-day window during which you are, on the surface, helpless. Fortunately you're not entirely helpless. When I've run into this, I've found that unsubscribing and then immediately resubscribing clears the problem. (Or, rather, the symptom; the *problem* is actually that the list maintainer chose list software that has badly designed bounce processing. In my case this is compounded because the list accepts syntactically erroneous mail and passes along in its syntactically erroneous form, then mistakes my mailer's rejection of such messages for an indication that there's something wrong at _my_ end.) /~\ The ASCII der Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mouse(a)rodents.montreal.qc.ca / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
