Re: [Cz-L] What has happened to the List emails?

Hi David,

A problem cropped up last week with a message that Fred Weisinger sent to
the list. His email was rejected by most of our subscriber's email
providers, so relatively few got to see Fred's email. The apparent cause
of the problem was the fact that Fred's email showed his email address in
the "From" column (. . . yahoo.com), but the email didn't originate from a
Yahoo.com email server. Instead, it was sent out by a Cornell University
email server. This seems to be a sign of a possible "spam" message, and
at this time the message rejections appear to be limited to emails from
yahoo email users. I expect that this might spread further beyond yahoo
email addresses, but wanting to give Fred a fair chance to post (and two
more of his messages just went out moments ago), I changed the From line
to show that this message, originating from a Cornell U. server, comes
from a cornell.edu email address.

The many subscribers who receive messages in the form of a single daily
digest have always had a "From" column indicating that the message
originated from the Czernowitz-List - not an individual.

Since hitting the "Reply" button will still send your response back to the
individual poster, you still need to press "Reply All" if you'd like your
reply to go to the entire list. That much hasn't changed.

If this turns out to be a big problem, I'll look for another solution, but
this is the only solution I have right now.
