I counted 105 this afternoon.

The theory as to why people don't get AH is that a spammer has
found the email address of a subscriber and used it to send spam
to the list. Thus spam filters everywhere think AH is a spammer
and block it.

That would also explain why we didn't get the same number of
posts.

Interestingly, this list has been getting spam as well.
Coincidence ? More plausibly, the victim either was subscribed
to both AH and synth-diy. Or was subscribed to one but had in
their address book someone who was subscribed to the other.

notron-sale at arithma.de has been kicked from AH and
jbemond at free.fr from synth-diy. I hope we didn't kick out people
whose only fault was to have been in the wrong person's address
book.

Didn't that "YwYzdw" post purportedly from chrystalclear at gmx.de
look fishy to you ? If the spammer has got hold of the addresses
of all the members of AH and synth-diy, we're not about to get
rid of him...
