I agree with Nigel. My ISP's email server blocks list traffic from
Fedora/Redhat servers. All of them. But allows traffic from several
others. Two of which use Mailman.
And while they were doing that I got 'stopped'. I had to change the
email server and restart the list(s).

David my ISP could care less. He gives me the Internet and expects
me to use it. He provides the mail server and sometimes has trouble but
gets it fixed. I use it as my wife does as we want to. So I am happy.
If the ISP gets bad I will just change to my other email server
gemail. This is done by Google and yes I am klarsen1 on that. And I can
save $25.00/mo since with a web based email I can just buy the Internet.
It is quite cheap.
