All,

Because of some new anti-spam techniques being used by Earthlink, we have
been instructed by Earthlink to set up an MX record for our LISTSERV
sub-domain (lists.sierraclub.org).  For the last 10 years, we have been
using LSMTP to route all sierraclub.org mail, including the LISTSERV mail.
If setting up the new MX record does not work, I will post another message.

Also, Earthlink Webmail customers did not have a problem.
