Apparently, Mark, you have forgotten the many hours I and Robert
(Nanook, the owner of Eskimo.com) spent working with you trying to
resolve your mail-server issues, in spite of the fact that Eskimo was
receiving significant spam from IP addresses your ISP controls.
In the end, Robert agreed to whitelist your server, despite the
hysterically abusive language you used in dealing with him. Longtime
list members know the sort of language to which I refer. I would not
have been so accomodative. In the process you revealed that you have
much to learn about maintaining mail servers.

The list traffic has several standard headers that most people find
convenient for whitelisting. You, Mark, are apparently the only list
member who is either unable or unwilling to add the list to your
whitelist; many other list subscribers have figured out how to tell
their C/R systems what they need to receive the traffic. I have no
idea what "repeated request" you've made, but here, once again, are
my suggestions of good headers to use for whitelisting this list:
Return-Path: <omega-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx>
Resent-From: omega-list@xxxxxxxxxx
X-Mailing-List: <omega-list@xxxxxxxxxx>
Resent-Sender: omega-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx
Good luck,
Jim
