The Code4lib list server has a bug.  When I send an email to the list,
it gets forwarded to the members of the list with my email address in
the FROM header.  Email to OCLC goes through Postini and Postini clearly
recognizes that an email originating from ND.EDU is not email from OCLC
and rejects it.  This means not only that other OCLC employees never see
my posts, but also the list server counts those rejected emails and
after some threshold the members who reject those emails get
unsubscribed from the list.

 

I've whined about this in the past.  I've also raised it as an issue
within OCLC and our email folks are going to work with the LSoft folks
(the maker of the list server) to solve the problem.  As a first step,
I'm sending this message to the list.  There will probably be a few
more.  I beg your patience.
