trouble postingMark Armstrong and TN-Birders,
I have researched your list configuration and I find no problem with your 
subscription setup for TN-Birds.  You have been successful in posting to 
TN-Birds in the past.  The freelist storage records indicate you have posted 
just one message since you were first subscribed:  
[TN-Bird] Mossy Creek WVA
  a.. From: Mark Armstrong <marka@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 
  b.. To: "'tn-bird@xxxxxxxxxxxxx'" <tn-bird@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> 
  c.. Date: Tue, 18 May 2004 17:37:07 -0400 

This suggest that you are set up properly.  Your configeration is proper.  You 
have the correct address to post to TN-Birds.

And, looking at what you sent me,  it simply appears at this time that you 
reached the listserv when it must have been down or offline or whatever.  Such 
downtimes come during bad weather, power outages, equipment malfunction, 
programs that crash, softwear errors that are created by programs failing to 
write correctly and on and on.  The listserver is in Ohio so they undergo 
situations that we don't.  It may have been a problem with the Knoxville Zoo 
listserv having difficulty processing the message.  Since I do not have the 
header, I cannot tell you anything useful about that.   If you wish, simply 
send a test message over TN-Birds now and lets's see if it comes thourgh 
correctly at this time.  If it does, then it was simply a temporary problem.  
Since I do not know the details of your problem with BIRDBAND listserv, I 
cannot determine if the lists had similar problems.   I do know that the 
BIRDBAND list uses a listserv at the University of Arizona and TN-Birds uses 
FreeList.  Let me know if I may be of further help.

  Hello Mr. Coffey

  I just tried to post to the tn-bird list and my message was rejected as 
undeliverable.  

  The following is the message I received:

  Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

        Subject:  Seven Islands Refuge

        Sent:     11/30/2004 11:36 AM

  The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

        'tn-bird@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' on 11/30/2004 11:36 AM

              The recipient name is not recognized

          The MTS-ID of the original message is: c=US;a= ;p=Knoxville 
Zoolog;l=TEST100-041130163602Z-4710

  I tried to post to the birdband list a while back and also got rejected and 
it turns out I had to make some adjustments on their site.  Can you tell if 
there is a similar problem? Thanks, Mark
