Second: For some reasons I have not received your message. It wasn't in the Spam folder and I usually receive mails from the list. Any ideas? Are there some known problems?

Your mailbox host does some strange address checking (we run a mail server here and then go to the provider and it checks the internal server with a local address) ... there are some more on this list that bounce that way, like gmx, and i';ve given up bothering about it. hans

Ok, what do you suggest? Change to a different mailserver for the list? Which hosts aren't prone to this problem? Or is there something I can change on my side?

The problem seems to be that traditional mailing lists like this just don’t work with modern security standards. I didn’t check how secure NTG’s mail server is configured, but changing subject and sender of every message is regarded harmful. Not doing that would mean that: * I can’t filter mails (visually or rule based) by subject any more. * A lot of replies would only go to the sender. * The connection of threads would get lost. (I see all of these on other lists.) So, using an address from a more tolerant (and maybe less secure) provider for lists like this would make sense.
