There is a garbage anti spam program out there at the ISP level called spamcop that is causing
problems. Check with your ISP if you still want to receive this newsletter.
I think some ISP's are implementing it and I don't expect they tell you what
messages they are not sending you.

If you know of somebody that suddenly stopped receiving the newsletter and they wonder
why tell them to check with their ISP. Due to the nature of these types of onerous programs
I cannot send them email and warn them when I start getting bounces from their email addresses.

Paul...

Not sure what program that my ISP uses, but they provide a link on their website where you can view and adjust the settings, and also see what addresses they have marked as suspicious and have
blocked.  From there, you can then choose those that you do not ever want blocked, or add ones of your own.

I suspect that others will probably have something similar...they'd want to be sure to avoid any liability if they block a wrong one.

As far as liability goes I can't seem to find out where exactly this spamcop outfit is so I 
can sue them :)
