[va-bird] Re: Posting problems on this listserv

About two weeks ago I suddenly could not post to VA Birds or Bristol Birds, 
both of which are on freelists. I was still receiving posts, but each time I 
tried to post I received messages saying that my e-mail address was not 
recognized and that the recipient was unknown. I couldn't even get a message to 
the server to unsubscribe. I received much appreciated help from the 
moderators, but so far nothing has worked. I finally subscibed to VA Birds 
using this Yahoo address. My other e-mail address remains blocked. However, I 
still use that same e-mail address for all other purposes with no problems.

  Va-Birders,

I am becoming increasingly concerned that many regular contributors 
to this list have trouble posting. It seems like Joe Coleman often 
must have someone else send his messages and announcements. I, too, 
have had problems that mysteriously appear and just as mysteriously 
disappear. These problems are frustrating and annoying, and with no 
real explanation or reason to expect this to clear up, I would like 
to publicly express dissatisfaction with FreeLists and wonder if the 
moderator, Paul Mocko, might investigate alternative servers. The 
archives of FreeLists are also cumbersome to use and it is impossible 
to effectively narrow a search. It is very easy and quick finding an 
old post on the public archives of MDOsprey's HOME.EASE.LSOFT.COM.

Thanks, Paul. This is no criticism of you, but I wonder if you could 
address these issues. I wonder how widespread the posting problems 
actually are and would welcome input from others.
