All the messages from removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid to removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid in  
the past few weeks (months?) have been dropped and never made it to the  
list. Who should I contact about resolving the issue?

Thanks,

Paul

It’s working because I’m sending via [www.ruby-forum.com](http://www.ruby-forum.com) rather than  
using the [atdesk.com](http://atdesk.com) mail servers.

No, it was posted from a forum – you trimmed that bit.

It’s kind of hard to debug not getting an e-mail, unless you have  
a bounce. How can you be sure they are not in the system? Some  
of mine have taken a while to reach the list, though not a week.

So I’m able to work around the problem by modifying my .muttrc to relay  
email through a different smtp server. I’d still like to know who to  
contact about why [atdesk.com](http://atdesk.com) is ignored.
