Has IBM been contacted?  You don't identify the List, but as I recall, there are a number of MVS lists.  Whether this is one, I cannot say, but, whether it is or not,  I would think it is something IBM might be concerned about as well.  If a filter has been misconfigured (for example), it might happen to other lists.  

OTOH, they might be filtering it themselves (lists we had that were "controversial" typically included a disclaimer as part of a TOP_ or BOTTOM_ banner).

Subject: records of past subscribers

I have encountered a problem with subscribers having their incoming emails from a list blocked by spam filters, specifically because the server at the host university has been identified as a spammer. The host listserv then deletes the subscriber, because of consecutive bounces. I’m trying to ascertain how widespread the problem is: I only know of two specific cases, but I’m sure there must be more (the two cases I know of are at one university, but I am fairly sure that there should have been more subscribers there, and the filter is operated for many institutions by IBM).

Is there a way to identify subscribers who have been deleted from the list because of bounced messages in the past?
