The old server died in March. Rick Jansen has since replaced it.
The new list has been up and active for a month.

The reason why you don't get any emails is probably the
challenge-response spam filter you use.

1. The mailing list server sends you an email.

2. Your mail server spits back a challenge email.

3. The mailing list server gets your challenge email, has no idea
   what to do with it and files it away in /dev/null.

4. Your mail server gets no response to its challenge so does not
   deliver the mailing list post to you.
