    Testing testing.  I've definitely been replying to your emails.  
The
last email I replied to was on Sep 7th (two in fact).

Those replies I saw - they were replies to material that had been 
posted
and mailed.  I mailed just to you about doc pages on the website the 
same
day, and resent it on Thursday, mentioning that you hadn't seemed to 
see
it.  Mail sent from me to just dillon at xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx doesn't 
seem to
make it, unless it also goes by way of one of the lists.  Or at least
that's my crackpot theory.
all my mail to dillon at apollo has been bouncing since the beginning i 
think. this is a 451 soft error which gets converted to a hard error 
after 5 days by my MTA.

Matt, I recognize you have several policies to filter connecting 
mailservers so that spam is reduced, and obviously it works like a 
charm. Unfortunately this makes some people's mail not to arrive. Well. 
I don't demand you to change that setup, I think it's perfecly okay 
because we got a really low spam ratio, but could you list what 
restrictions exist, both for people to use the same technique and for 
other people (Justin and me at least) to correct their MTAs so that 
mails to you make it through :)

To clarify: mails to crater work. mails directed to 
apollo.backplane.com don't.

cheers
  simon
ps: same apologies, but this just has to be handled via the list. 
private mailing is one direction at the moment.
