[TYPO3-english] mail not accepted

[Luc de Louw]

Folks,

The first time I got the "usual" two bounces per posting.

In all bounces there have been the same last received mail headers from 
Ireland.

I unsubscribed and banned the person in question and informed that 
person about it and asked for patience to prove positive or negative 
about that measure.

I asked the person in question to subscribe to typo3-test to further 
help finding a positive or negative finding.

Even this posting I'm writing here would show if it helped or not.

Thanks,

Luc
