So here's a perfect example. I never got Craig's email which is quoted in Jacque's reply. This only happens with emails sent from either an AOL address or a Yahoo address to the How To list so it's definitely a Yahoo/AOL related problem.
I don't pretend to know the ins and outs of this but I'm told it's the result of an email checking protocol named DMARC. I am going to try changing the address my list mails are sent to to my gMail address instead of my lcSQL address and see if that makes any difference.
