[Air-l] list rejections

[jeremy hunsinger]

Some of you may have recently experienced that your mail to air-l has 
been rejected or held by the moderators.  Due to the recent upswing in 
viruses and spam, we've added filters to the system to capture and hold 
all mime or otherwise encoded mail.  We are currently only 
automatically allowing plain text messages through the system, 
everything else is being held or rejected, either manually or 
automatically.  We are also automatically rejecting almost all emails 
with the subject line similar to the last round of virus's, such as 
Subject: Hi, Subject: Hello, etc.  We have for the last two years 
rejected on certain forms of subject and headers for spam and virus 
reasons, so some of you will have experienced this before.

if you  have questions, feel free to send them to suggestions at aoir.org

Thanks,
