thanks to everybody who has helped with testing so far.

as i expected some mail providers classify mail from the new host as spam.
i just now installed an additional service on the server that implements
"sender rewriting scheme" (srs), which might help a bit, but it's probably
not enough. i suppose the best thing that helps is to train the spam
detectors to not classify mails from the new host as spam. if you want to
help out follow these steps:

- send a mail to test-devel+subscr...@testlists.darktable.org to subscribe
to the test list
- wait for the confirmation email and reply to it. if you don't  receive
the mail, check the spam folder and wait
- send some test emails to test-de...@testlists.darktable.org
- check your spam folder to see whether other users have send a test mail
as well and consequently mark all spam mails from the test list as non-spam
- let me know how it's going

thanks and cheers,
-chressie
