Michael, Have you checked with Comcast, which appears to be your internet provider, to see if the problem might be on their end? Looking at the text of the error message you forwarded, it doesn't look as though Comcast's, or Freelist's, servers are rejecting your message, but rather that the messages are not being delivered in a timely enough fashion for Comcast's servers. You might ask Comcast if they have their message time-out settings on their SMTP servers set unusually low. Alternatively, if you have an email account with another ISP, you might try to subscribe and post to this list from that account to see if that doesn't solve your problem. I've seen several posts from you regarding this issue, and never another concurring post from anyone else, so I'm not sure whether or not the list or its servers can be immediately eyed as the culprit of the problems. I can't imagine you to be the only comcast address subscribed to this list, but I can't think of others off the top of my head. See if a bit of research with Comcast might not help with this issue. Good luck.
