[Commlist] commlist being reopened slowly

Dear subscribers,

Thanks to the hard work of the Commlist tech team, we have managed to 
reopen the Commlist.

This reopening will go slow, with, for now, only a few messages per day 
being let through.

A few things will have to change, though.

1/ Subscribers really will have to have the commlist.org domain 
whitelisted. If you don't do this, the list will soon collapse again. 
Some collective sense of responsibility is necessary to keep the list 
functioning. More information on whitelisting is below. This requires a 
few minutes of work. About a 1000 people haven't done this yet, and 
that, I am sorry to say, contributed to the collapse of the list in April.

2/ Because of the aggressive policies of hotmail.com, outlook.com and 
(windows)live.com, these email addresses will no longer be allowed to 
subscribe to the Commlist.

3/ Postings that do not respect all guidelines (see commlist.org) will 
not be posted. But from now on, posters will no longer be informed of 
this decision, and no help will be provided with processing the 
guidelines. This has become too time-consuming for me, and I really 
think that people who want to post on an academic mailing list should be 
able to process posting guidelines without my help.

Kind regards,
Nico

1/If you're are using MICROSOFT OUTLOOK (or variations)

++ You need to explicitly whitelist the commlist (in general) by adding 
the commlist.org domain to the safe senders list, see below for guidelines
++ in addition, go to your junk email box, and if there are any 
commlist.org messages there, you'll need to mark them as NOT spam.
++ In future, make sure never to mark commlist.org messages as spam, as 
this is damaging the list

2/If you're on a service like GMAIL

++ You need to explicitly whitelist the commlist (in general), see below 
for guidelines
++ in addition, go to your spam/junk box, and if there are any 
commlist.org messages there, you'll need to mark them as NOT spam.

the list

3/If you're on a university server, or a smaller commercial server
++ please contact your computer centre and/or helpdesk and explicitly
ask to whitelist the domain @commlist.org.
