[ARRL-OK] RE: ARRL.net address

Looks to me like a good reason to   NOT
use the ARRL's mail forwarding.

I just found out that the ARRL.net  will reject any e-mail that has more 
than
one address in it.

I received the following  from the folks at QSL.net:

<<As suspected and now confirmed by a tech (thanks to Dick Flanagan for the
contact help) at ARRL, they are refusing any mail that has more than 1
recipient on it.  They did not confirm or deny that they would implement any 
other
spam controls.

What this means is if we want to continue sending mail to subscribers with
ARRL addresses, we have to send individual messages to everyone (which we 
are
doing now).  We were sending a messages with 30 addresses on each one which
meant mail went out much faster.

So far we seem to be able to deliver messages in a timely fashion but during
peak periods, users may see delays, and since this version of Mailman works 
on
the LIFO (last in first out) method, some mail can be delayed until the peak
traffic drops off.>>
