On the email reflector topic:
Since I re-subscribed to Greenkeys, about three years ago - I have never gotten 100% of posts - and very seldom ever get any that I originated. It seems to follow a random pattern; sometimes I get a few in a row, other times I get nothing for days, even though they are in the archives.
It's a case of several chained 'black boxes' - complicated by the
fact that this is a Godaddy-hosted domain and email service, and
since I don't (won't!) use Win11.99999 and Outlook, they are not
inclined to help much, unless I come to my senses and abandon all
this Mozilla junk I cling to. I also get Greenkeys on my Android
phone, and even fewer messages propagate through to it. If it was
just this one, I'd switch to something else, but I have 9 domains
and 14 email services - it's way too daunting of a task for me to
do myself.
For a while I collated and tabulated the posts - and then went
through the headers to see if something was common to the
"failures", but this proved inconclusive.
So I have the Archives bookmarked, and go there often to see what
I've missed. And just now, there are 18 messages and replies that
I did not get, save for Paul Heller's mid-thread reply to Tom
Hunter's OP: "Greenkeys problem". Paul's is the 11th reply in the
chain, and it is the one quoted below - this is how I knew there
were posts on the Subject in the first place.
The effort and time to try and get to the bottom of this is way more than I wish to expend - I do think it is probably a Godaddy issue - but all my other emails are at about 99% received - so I dunno.

PS: I snipped the long chain from this to avoid 'reply bloat'...
When you guys say it “bounced”, what do you mean?
A few years ago there was a big discussion here and the conclusion was that Gmail was filtering out the received message because it was the same as the sent message. The return incoming message was filtered out by gmail, but not the outgoing message. It only happened with list type servers like greenkeys.
It’s mad because you don’t really know if it actually went out (it always did). Our conclusion then was that you just had to have faith.
