Re: AARRGGHH !!!

The reason you were bounced is not something that can normally be answered from the server end.

It requires some detective work, often a lot of it.

The problems that I have dealt with when helping list members have *always* been unrelated to the list.

Usually the users local mail server, sometimes a mail relay.

In any case, the best course of action is to start with your local mail admin, as that is where the problem usually is.

You are not alone... Nobody correctly explained me why when I had been unsubsctibed several months ago. I've contacted support of fatcity and received this:

I have no interest in tracking down why you were bounced from a list. If I did that, I'd be doing nothing but answering questions from irate users about what caused them to be bounced. In 99.9% of the cases, the fault is at THEIR end, not ours. In the remaining .1%, there was some transient problem in the delivery, or error in our scripts.

So, relax, there is no way to get an answer.
