From what I've been told, Yahoo (based on "user complaints" supposedly) is intermittently blocking the entire block of IP addresses used by UNC & various other academic institutions in central NC.

You can decide for yourself whether this "protective" action has been a net positive or negative for you ;-)

I'm not one to advocate a wholesale migration to Google, but it does currently appear that gmail users aren't having the same problem, presumably because gmail's spam-filtering is different in how it's implemented.

For what it's worth, I'm also subscribed to the list
through yahoo and it appears that I received about 1/3
of the total posts in this thread. I did not check to
see how many posts from other threads I
missed...although it looks like I missed at least a
couple on the "election time" thread as well...

obviously my computer hates me.

if it might be better to subscribe through a gmail
address, let me know...I could do that...but what's
with the discrimination against Yahoo!?...Microsoft
has not bought them, yet!...and someone needs to email
me off list and remind me how I subscribed in the
first place...it was like 13 or 14 years ago!!

Both Senor 3 & Senor Hepler are subscribed from
Yahoo accounts. That is the only correlation I've seen so far. Other peeps
who don't get this email but who believe they should've can contact me.
Heh.

E.S. posted the other day stating that she was
having trouble getting mail from another ibiblio list & wanted to see if it
was an ibiblio problem. Also from a Yahoo account. I wonder if she
saw her post.

I had bounce processing turned off before (must've
been the default) but now I've turned it on. I'm not sure what level of
notification I'll get about bounces, but in theory *you'll* get
notification about bounces. In my experience, that only works kinda, due to the
obvious reasons.

Hep, I've noticed that you're *posting* from a gmail
account. Why'ncha subscribe from that account & then tell us if it
works better?

Yeah, 3, I'm reading via google groups because I
no longer get even my
own emails to the list. Nothing in the bulk
folder either.

I've got to admit I laughed out loud at Ross's
proposal for a career for
chapelhillguitarist.
the money shot, yep.

i'd like to thank ross for all the favoritism.
gatekeeper is a dirty job, but somebody's gotta
do it.
there are hundreds of bands around here and very
few
clubs. only a fraction of these bands are
actually
worth seeing or hearing on the radio. good job,
amigo.
and i'd like to thank glenn for keeping the bar
very
low. i don't know how many people know both how
much
glenn really really loves music and just how
super
nice he is to everybody. it's actually very easy
to
play the 506 if you have a band people want to
see.
when i met glenn over twenty years ago he was
managing
a band. (ok, red flag, they did really suck.) and
right before he bought the 506 he was managing a
band
(ok, my favorite band, his taste vastly improved
with
age.) i'm pretty sure he knows what bands go
through
to get heard. and i doubt there is a more
considerate
club owner in the universe as a result. i'd hate
to
have to answer the volume of email he must get
expecting a reply.

it was clear to me that i wasn't getting all the
emails in this thread. i
checkedhttps://lists.ibiblio.org/sympa/arc/ch-scen=
e/2008-February/thread.html
and verified i was missing most of what should
have
been a thread requiring an extra large tub of
popcorn.
i checked my spam folder and the missing emails
weren't there. anybody else having this problem?
ross,
are any attempted deliveries to me getting
bounced? if
microsoft or news corp is going to buy this
clunker of
a mail agent, it might be time to retire it and
find a
new horse.
