[modeleng] List and possible problems.

Over the weekend I had the irritating experience of having all my messages
to this list, bounce.
The returned message included the following,
"> TO:<modeleng@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
>     host turing.freelists.org [206.53.239.180]: 554 =
> <ptb-relay03.plus.net[212.159.14.214]>:
>     Client host rejected: Access denied

I tried sending an email to the freelists support people only to have that
bounce too !
When I did get through to them I had a reply within three hours (pretty
fast, I reckon), and they sorted out the problem at once.
I gather that this problem occurs when ANY list that they host gets a batch
of spam messages. The system automatically rejects anything coming from the
same internet provider and addressed to any list.
Should you happen to be using that same internet provider, your emails will
bounce.

Just in case it happens to anyone else, just let Al Messer,  TEL, or me,
know, and we will assist.

I see that we have some new members, so welcome to them.
Join in as you wish. We are a friendly bunch here, and dont bite. Well, not
often !
