DH is indeed my Mailman host.  If you remember, I was (hopefully all in the past - knock on wood laminate) having issues with RR/TW rate-limiting mailing list emails from DH’s server, causing bouncing/subscription disabling.  Who knows if this is related.  I am in touch with them to see what is going on.
