Maybe some blocks of data matched a spam detector

I did an OS upgrade a while back, affecting all lists,
but I'm not aware of any disruption now.

Good idea.

ports-cur-fast & ports-cur available via berklix.org
                 ports-cur available via freebsd.org
same ports-cur data is sent to both lists

If you want to test if your company is maybe filtering on sender
domain, you could sub. a test address to both sender domains, & compare.
