Well it's set up exaclty like that. Again the problem is with one particular mailing list (mplayer). I want to know what spam-prevention (or otherwise) tricks that ML is doing that I can't get the mail out. The Debian lists appear happy to accept my "broken" setup (as amply demonstrated by this post). Since I first got connected just three or four years ago, the Net it seems has become a more and more paraonid place. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
