Re: Mail list problem

[Kevin Barry]

>   64.147.123.35 is not allowed to send mail from web.de.

The spf record for web.de does not list that IP address:
web.de.                 299     IN      TXT     "v=spf1
ip4:212.227.126.128/25 ip4:212.227.15.0/25 ip4:212.227.17.0/27
ip4:217.72.192.248/29 ip4:82.165.159.0/26 ip4:217.72.207.0/27
ip4:217.72.192.64/26 ip4:82.165.229.130 ip4:82.165.230.22 -all"

So it looks like there is something wrong with his email provider. Or
if he has been sending email from his personal IP, then perhaps web.de
only recently started using spf (which would stop that kind of
behaviour).
