[Mailman-Users] many "Subscription disabled" messages after moving list to new server

[James Reid]

Hi Andrew,

I'd have a look to see if the email addresses that are being disabled come
from similar domains... problem might be caused by reverse dns or spf
records - check out

for some ideas.

Regards,
James.
