Subscribers With Bad Mail Providers

  Berklix Warned About Bad Mail Providers In 2010:
Berklix Will Dump All Yahoo & Hotmail Mail Addresses.

TECHNICAL (non technical people should skip this):

• Even though the newer (New) Mailman is much easier to use than the older (Retired) Majordomo, the filters remain, to protect list owners & server administrators from some list members, mainly GEA who deliberately wasted our time.
• (Retired) Majordomo worked fine until Aug. - Sept. 2016 when it was phased out for (New) Mailman
• Numerous non- technical people learnt & used (Retired) Majordomo successfully.
• A few people who genuinely admitted computers were not their thing, got sympathy, & were administrator's encouragement to provide more information & examples to try to help.
• (Wouldn't be surprising if (Retired) Majordomo@berklix might have been one of the best documented instances of (Retired) Majordomo on the web.)
• Many list specific pages under www.berklix.org also held examples how to subscribe, unsubscribe etc. (info stripped since arrival of (New) Mailman).
• There were also several (Retired) Majordomo specific help pages, extra info pages & links & worked examples.
• Despite all that, some refused to read, learn, think, & try experimenting with variants for success; They falsely asserted (Retired) Majordomo did not work, when it was them being lazy, thus ignorant & failing to think. ).
• Don't believe those who tell you (Retired) Majordomo @ Berklix did not work!
  Anecdote: One clown who demanded to waste administrator's unpaid time, also claimed he was a programmer! Assumption was he was a liar, bone idle, or professional incompetent as (Retired) Majordomo was working; & so many real programmers have learned (Retired) Majordomo worldwide after a few goes, self included; including all on some lists on ex (Retired) Majordomo driven Berklix mail lists & including other (Retired) Majordomo servers elsewhere globally.
• (New) Mailman only needed to replace (Retired) Majordomo after server hardware failed & OS software upgrades required new application software.
• Until then, administrator time needed to upgrade to (New) Mailman was not available for years, as time that could have been used for mutual benefit of all was persistently wasted by some list members.
• Selfish lazy people, mostly GEA, refused to learn (Retired) Majordomo, & persistently demanded administrator waste his time to do their [un]subscribe change request work for them.
• More time was lost creating & linking ever more detailed help, how to un-sub & sub, & how & why to send ascii, & how to look at headers etc: (Basic education for the computer illiterate) ... That many (not all) GEA people remained forever too bone idle to use.
• Two thieves stole & replicated the main GEA list, provoking a storm of duplicate reports, confusion, & complaints.
• Numerous people mistakenly wrote to whole lists (ins some cases, lists of 250 people), asking for personal subscription changes. That nudged some clueless people to cascade "Me too" replies to list.
• Some malicious GEA members also encouraged an avalanche of unsubscribe requests to whole list, instead of to correct (Retired) Majordomo unsubscribe request address.
• I don't recall any GEA list member protecting lists by a short reply on list with a "Do It Yourself - How to Is in Headers & Footers!". Though that has happily happened on other Berklix lists & other lists on other domains.
• More admin time was lost adding filters to protect lists, list owners, & administrator from ignorant list members inappropriate subscription request noise, & personal noise from bone idle ingrates.
• Not one member of any list (GEA or other) Ever requested the option to donate 10 Euros to a charity, to pay to waste the administrator's time for their personal benefit.
• Mailman Owner Refuses To Waste Time For Infinitely Lazy Thus Clueless People Who Meanly & Stupidly Refuse To Learn (New) Mailman
• Some list members perpetrated dirtier tricks to disrupt service, wasting yet more administrator time.
• Though the vast majority of people on many lists behaved well, & lots already knew or learnt (Retired) Majordomo, some GEA people - not all - were rotten apples, wasting administrator time that could have instead gone to upgrading to everyones benefit.

Above is why:

• Many list owners & (New) Mailman owner addresses are now protected by automatic junk discard filters.
• Most non technical eg social & sport lists are now announcements only from listed event organisers, to protect from incompetents.
• Some announce only lists were given supplementary -chat lists, to retain original open unmoderated scope, at risk of inappropriate traffic from incompetents, each person can make own choice whether just to join LIST-announce@ or also LIST-chat@.
• Technical lists (except announcements lists) remain open to all members to post
• Though this above is less open than it used to be, when every list used to open to be written by every member, it's as open as possible.

No Censors, No Moderators

• There are no human "moderators" aka censors on any list. (The administrator loathes moderated lists & forums & is Not a moderator/censor here or elsewhere), he reads lists like you, after someone posts to lists.)
• All lists have filters to automaticly silently discard un-allowed posts to list of form "unsubscribe me" , "change my address" etc/. sub & unsubscribe via mail or web, do it yourself properly like it tells you in headers & footers!.
• If your post to a list fails, you were Not censored
  • But list owners will also not see your post ( as our (New) Mailman usually silently discard as spam, any mail from any address not listed as a member.
    
  • So You Yourself Must Check you post with a 'From:' header that matches you subscribed address that (New) Mailman sends to.
  • Don't forget the address (New) Mailman send to may be forwarded via a series of your old employers or providers.
  • Your final receiving address - & who you Think you are - is totally irrelevant ! Post only with a 'From:' address that matches the address (New) Mailman mails to you with.

• To make sure you receive future emails, it's a good idea to 'whitelist' our sender email addresses, eg: Sender: "LISTNAME" <LISTNAME-bounces @ mailman .berklix .org> , so that they don't get wrongly tagged as spam by mistake.
  
• Here's how you can do that in some of the most popular email programs:
• 1 In Gmail, click on the downward facing arrow next to the time of the email and add LISTNAME-bounces @ mailman . berklix . org to your contacts list. Alternatively, if one of our mails has been moved to the spam folder, you can mark it "Not Spam" to whitelist it.
• 2 In Yahoo, look for the plus (+) sign next to LISTNAME-bounces @ mailman . berklix . org at the top of this message where it says who it is from. Click on it and select Add To Contacts.
• 3 In Outlook, right click on this message and select Junk Email. Then select Add Sender To Safe Senders List.
• If you use another email system, there should be a similar option either to record LISTNAME-bounces @ mailman . berklix . org as a 'safe' address or to save the address to your address book (which achieves the same thing).
