If you’ve been getting the mystery “message rejected” messages, read on…
It seems this is a “known problem”, and it’s not a bug in Lyris. It’s also
not NECESSARILY a “user error” problem. From Lyris Support:
What is happening is that the some mail server is sending back
mail and not using the proper header standards. It is sending mail
back to the list address which Lyris will reject to avoid loops and
duplicates. This is why Lyris checks for the <lyri… header. this>header checking is hard-coded into Lyris and cannot be removed.
Apparently this problem was particularly nasty with some Road Runner site in
Houston this week, and people on public lists were being driven nuts.
Of course, if you bounce an email back to the list (instead of the “reply
to” address, like you’re supposed to) then you will, legitimately, get this
rejection. Likewise if you cut and paste the entire text of a message and
include the Lyris message ID.
Let me know (preferably via direct email, not via the list) if you find a
particularly egregious offender and we’ll, ah, “:facilitate” his progress…
