[Sheflug] For People with Google Mail Addresses

[Richard Ibbotson <richard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

For anyone using Gmail to send to this list and other lists.  I 
thought the following might be helpful.

I've found out by accident (no one told me) that if I want to send 
mail to any list anywhere with my Gmail address then I have to 
subscribe as username@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx  That's *googlemail* and not 
gmail.  Even though my address ends in gmail.com.  Mail will then 
arrive from the list at my Gmail account and I can send mail to the 
list once again.

Strangely, the Debian Listserv isn't listening to any request from 
myself about my Gmail address.  It just says..

" debian-amd64@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
SMTP error from remote mail server after RCPT 
TO:<debian-amd64@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
host liszt.debian.org [82.195.75.100]: 550 5.7.1 
<debian-amd64@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
Recipient address rejected: Mail appeared to be SPAM or forged. Ask 
your Mail/DNS-Administrator to correct HELO and DNS MX settings or to 
get removed from DNSBLs; in postmaster.rfc-ignorant.org "

My ISP (ADSL24.co.uk) have checked this and I am not listed as a 
spammer.  Just that Debian's Listserv refuses to do anything to help.  
The Debian list admin does not answer when I write to him for help.  
Been working with the Debian project since 1993.
