Hi LAFFER1 and folks,
Tks for your response and advice.
I am in complete perpexity. I am using Kmail to send
and to receive mails. It has been working without
problem inclduing sending/receiving emails to/from
"freebsd-questions at freebsd.org" I signed off about 10
days ago and re-subscribed 3 days later. Then problem
happened. I can't send mails to
"freebsd-questions at freebsd.org", all of them rejected.
I have not made any adjustment to the setup/config
of Kmail.
I recalled that at the first time I subscribed to this
list about one and half months ago. This problme did
happen, sending mail to this list being impossible.
Finally I contacted the owner of this list. He made
adjustment manually then solving my problem.
Unfortunately I losed his address and can't contact
him. Any advice on contacting the owner.
TIA
B.R.
Stephen
