And, yes, this email address also received at  least 8 oe:ica communiques. 
Most of them GMCA.   Very good of you  to handle these aggravating glitches, 
Tim.   amelia  kroeger

I am sure email arcania is about as fun as a trip to the dentist  for most 
of you ... Alas, a bunch of our accounts have (again) been disabled  again 
because of excessive bouncing. Mostly (but not entirely) hotmail and  
comcast. No you did nothing wrong. This is another example of the human  condition. 
Something about those arrows pushing up from below and down from  above.  


The reason is that some internet providers are toughening their rules to  
avoid spam, and our mailing list gets caught in the crossfire. One tactic I 
am  trying is to change back to replies going to the lists rather than the 
sender,  so please be aware of that. (Replies going to the sender is probably 
better,  but oh well). So if you reply to a list message, you will need to 
be mindful  and change the address if you don't want it to go to everyone. I 
am trying  this to keep your email provider's robots happy.


Once again, if you get a message that your account has been disabled, let  
me know (_tim at tswegner.net_ (mailto:tim at tswegner.net) ). Generally you do 
NOT need to do what the  email requests to get reinstated, I will do it for 
you and everyone.  If  just a few of you do this it helps alert me that there 
is a problem. My own  gmail account appears to be less fussy.


It is not a bad thing that the email providers are working harder to  
prevent spam. Eventually we will get this straightened out.

PS - for (only!) the scientifically inquisitive, here's one provider's  
explanation. If any of you (very few) geeky types want to discuss this further  
and help debug the problem, drop me a note.
