Hi everyone, You may have noticed around nine blank messages recently. As far as we know non-members of the list sent messages about plants, they were moderated and forwarded to the list, and they came out blank. This can happen if the email has the wrong format - all html and no text equivalent. So nothing to worry about. I'll see if I can retrieve the information from the log files. Meanwhile, there has been an issue with yahoo (who also supply email services to others e.g. Verizon). Posts have been delayed, possibly blocked - but we have not had bounce messages that would have alerted us to the problem - it took a list member reporting missing posts. According to Yahoo this is because some of their users have marked list posts as unwanted (rather than taken the trouble to unsubscribe). My own experience of yahoo is that all PBS list posts are directed to spam. The solution is to "white list" PBS posts. Doing that helps you, but it also may convince yahoo that we are not spammers. Ask Google for white list instructions. -- David Pilling http://www.davidpilling.com/ _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net http://lists.pacificbulbsociety.net/cgi-bin/…
