I have been struggling with the following problem.  We have a couple
of lists in which subscribers from various mail servers within our
local domain (SIU.EDU) have not been receiving their mail.  Folks
subscribed with BITNET addresses (something@SIUCVMB) are receiving
their list mail ok.
 
I set up a test list and subscribed myself from various sources and
only my BITNET-subscribed address received the list mail.
Here is my list:
 
*
* Test List
*
*   Review= Private   Subscription= Closed       Send= Public
*   Notify= No        Reply-To= List,Respect     Files= Yes
*   Confidential= Yes
*   Validate= Store Only
*   Notebook=Yes,X1/200,Monthly,Private
*   Owner=  [log in to unmask] (Adam Floro)
[log in to unmask]                      Adam Floro
CA2077@SIUCVMB                    Adam Floro
[log in to unmask]            Adam Floro
*
* Total number of users subscribed to the list:    3
* Total number of local node users on the list:    1
*
 
I only use this list for testing to try debugging list problems.
Now, from the above 3 subscribers only CA2077@SIUCVMB received
the mail I sent to the list.  Immediately after sending the
mail to the list, I received the following 2 items from LISTSERV:
 
--- 1st item ---

this is a test
 
--- end of 2nd item ---
 
The above 1st item is complaining about UICBIT which is not
even defined in our RSCS tables.
 
The above 2nd item was called JNTEST-L MAILDIST and appears to be
some kind of "job" that LISTSERV didn't know what to do with and
decided to send it to me.
 
The only thing I can make out is that when mail is destined to
folks located on our local internet domain (SIU.EDU) *and* are
also subscribed to a local list on our bitnet node SIUCVMB,
they inevitably don't receive their list mail.
 
This situation is extremely irritating and I'd like to know
from someone with more LISTSERV/Internet expertise than I on how to
go about either fixing it or how to locate the cause of the problem.
 
Any help at all is greatly appreciated!!!
