Kurt,The mailing list will automatically move people to "vacation" status if it gets too many undeliverable ("bounced") messages in a short time frame. Currently, ROC-Chat is set up to put someone on "vacation" status if they have at least 7 "transient" bounces or at least 2 "fatal" bounces in a 30 day period. Transient bounces are things like "mailbox full" or "host unreachable" errors, and fatal bounces are things like "user doesn't exist" errors.
So, if anyone stops receiving ROC-Chat mail and doesn't know why, it'd be a good idea to have a few friends with different mail systems send you messages to verify that your email address is actually still working properly. Then, go to //www.freelists.org/list/roc-chat and make sure you're not set to "Vacation" status.
Of course, even if your email is NOT working properly, you can still always read the archives at: //www.freelists.org/list/roc-chat
