NewtonTalk is moving. by Grant Hutchinson http://www.newted.org/2009/10/heads-up-kids-newtontalk-is-moving/comment-page-1/#comment-41 Grant Hutchinson Thu, 05 Nov 2009 03:24:29 +0000 http://www.newted.org/?p=212#comment-41 Hey Scot. I’m not sure what would be causing that specific behaviour, other than a change of servers. I know that a lot of mailing list messages do get caught in spam filters, at least initially. And you do need to train the filter to understand that it’s not bulk email, but content that’s part of a mailing list. The message headers contain this type of information, but since it’s easily spoofed, I’m not surprised that some spam filters ignore it. Hey Scot.

I have no intention of drifting away from the Newton or the surrounding community. I'll be around for a while yet ... plus, now I have to get up to speed running a mailing list too. Cheers.

I'll keep an eye on the box, but it may be time for some additional tidying and maintenance. Ben, try it again now.
