Just thought that you might want to know that I have had the same problem. It is something that happens regardless of the listserv. I have a valid email just in case you are interested. I am in Charleston, South Carolina. I would suggest that the webmaster eliminate any emails from the list that bounce a message back. One could simply be sent out asking us to validate our emails; this is usually done every six months with my listservs. I have enjoyed the 'conversation'. I wish you all a wonderful Holiday.
