I am owner of the Help-Net list which you might be familar with. It is fairly popular. Now I need some help. Within recent weeks, I have been receiving lots of error messages from Princeton University saying their system is having trouble deliverying mail from Help-Net. Similar errors from Princeton have taken place previously, but now, it seems to be too often. I am unable to figure out why because Princeton's system makes it impossible for me to figure out who the posting was intended for. Does anyone have any words of wisdom on how I can fix this problem or who I can contact at Princeton for help with this problem? A typical message from Pucc appears below.
