> Hello

> Recent actions by Yahoo have caused a large amount of bounced email and automatic unsubscribes from mailman.qth.net lists. If you

> This afternoon the list software was upgraded on the mailman.qth.net email server to hopefully eliminate the issue.  The main side effect is this:

> If the sender of a message is coming from Yahoo or one of the domains that Yahoo controls you will notice a few different things about those messages when they go to the list:
> 
> - Messages will appear to come from a munged email address not belonging to the sender.  If the sender has his name set in his email client or on the list server then messages will appear to come from a user appearing like this in the From field: "Firstname Lastname via
> LISTNAME" or something similar.
> 
> - The poster's email is preserved and appears in the Reply-To field.

> SO to reply to the list, the poster will have to specifically select
> Reply All in his email client in order for his response to go to the entire list.  In some cases this represents no change.  This is probably a safer setting and avoids embarrassment for those who can't resist being nasty and vindictive in their emails.
> 
> If you see any issues please let John K5XA know.
> 
> I would further suggest that if you are affected in the future you should resubscribe. The
> bounce/unsubscribe issues should be behind us now.
