MSN and MSN/Hotmail in their infinite wisdom have decided to block all List mails from Rootsweb and bounce them back to me. This will mean that eventually all Msn and Hotmail addresses will automatically be unsubbed unless the matter is resolved speedily. For those subscribers affected, I suggest that you try either your "proper" ISP or change to a more reliable service. Rootsweb Admins themselves have tried to contact Msn but have had no joy! The following is part of a message to List Admins from Rootsweb Admins: >>>>>>>>>>>>>> >From my tests from RootsWeb and external connections it seems that MSN has dropped the mail routing from RootsWeb so that their mail server doesn't even acknowledge our existence. It is MSN's right to accept mail from whomever they wish,................. There is no way that RootsWeb can resolve this issue without the ability to contact MSN which we *cannot* do directly when they won't accept our mail. What does all this mean? 1) MSN subscribers email is spooled on our list servers trying to be delivered and it will bounce to admins three days after it was received 2) MSN admins email will do as above though this will bounce to me. 3) If your MSN subscribers bounce and come to you or you are an MSN subscriber, then please address the issue to [email protected] or whatever alternate means is available for you to get issues resolved. >>>>>>>>>>>>
