[ppy] sure, Rich ... I have just done that for you, for both the
[ontolog-forum] (discussion) and [ontolog-invitation] (announcement)
lists. You should have received system notifications to that effect.    (03)

[ppy] not sure if I understand you properly ... your situation should
have nothing to do the issue that Thomas Johnson is reporting (which
seems to have been caused by a problematic Yahoo mail server, which is
probably hijacked by spammers.)    (05)

We (CIM3, whose infrastructure the Ontolog mailing lists are running
on) do not go out to "block" these spamming servers. Rather, we block
servers that are being "publicly blacklisted" (and those reported on
sorbs.net are among them.) ... please refer again to the message I
have cited earlier -
http://ontolog.cim3.net/forum/ontolog-admin/2014-02/msg00000.html - as
well as other references that message referred to.)    (06)


Regards. =ppy
