I am in complete perpexity. I am using Kmail to send and to receive mails. It has been working without problem inclduing sending/receiving emails to/from "freebsd-questions@freebsd.org" I signed off about 10 days ago and re-subscribed 3 days later. Then problem happened. I can't send mails to "freebsd-questions@freebsd.org", all of them rejected. I have not made any adjustment to the setup/config of Kmail. I recalled that at the first time I subscribed to this list about one and half months ago. This problme did happen, sending mail to this list being impossible. Finally I contacted the owner of this list. He made adjustment manually then solving my problem. Unfortunately I losed his address and can't contact him. Any advice on contacting the owner. TIA B.R.
