I assumed Gmail is bouncing emails because the error mailman returns to the list member is "too many bounces". It could be something else though. Apparently it doesn't happen to all Gmail users, only some, and if I remember right, some AOL and Yahoo addresses do the same thing.

It might be useful for an affected member to ask Google support if they know why it happens.

Is gmail actually bouncing them?  I thought that everything suspicious
ended up in the spam folder.

No, not entirely sure, but I've read about it before. Google changes its
algorithms and spam filters frequently, so it's possible they've tweaked it
again.

Here's one article I found:

If you google "gmail bounces mailman emails" there are thousands of hits,
some of which are more relevant than others.

are we sure that is the reason?  This problem is recent.  I've been a
member of the list with the same gmail address since 2005 without having
these issues.

So far, at least in this round, the people who have been dropped are
using gmail addresses. I've read about issues with gmail before. If
there
is a way to whitelist the LiveCode list, that could help. Since the
drops
are caused by the refusal of the receiving domain, I don't think there
is
much that LiveCode can do. The list is being sent and actively rejected
by
Google filters.
