~spwenger's DEFENSIVE USE OF FIREARMS: The Site & Its Logo

From time to time, the list server gets blocked erroneously as a source of spam. This usually entails a delay in getting the block lifted.

I do not recall this being an issue with third-party/webmail addresses such as the free ones with services such as Yahoo, Gmail, Germany-based Tutanota, Switzerland-based ProtonMail or with those that charge a nominal fee, such as Australia-based FastMail or Netherlands-based StartMail. Note that Hotmail addresses are blocked.

If you value uninterrupted delivery of the Digest, I recommend using such an address, even if only to receive a backup copy.

I know of specific blocks by:

• Apple (e.g., icloud.com, mac.com, me.com, etc.)
• ATT (e.g., att.net, ameritech.net, bellsouth.net, pacbell.net, sbcglobal.net, etc.)
• Microsoft (e.g., hotmail.com, live.com, msn.com, outlook.com, etc.)

If you have one of these addresses, you will need a third-party webmail address to receive the Digest mailings.
