Re: Need Help Posting to Dev Group - Re: Delivery Notification: Delivery has failed

[Tony Stevenson <to...@pc-tony.com>]

Gregg, 

Two things.

1) *ALWAYS* send mail to the ASF mailing lists as plain text, not html/multipart
2) *ALWAYS* include a message body. 

Both of these will almost certainly result in your mail being canned as SPAM.  The former is the most prevalent of traps that users fall into. 
If this is not the case, we will need to see the remaining mail heaers from the bounce message to be able to determine the cause.

I am subscribed and receive messages from the list on a regular basis. I tried to post a very simple message (attached) that has nothing more than a subject (no body) and even it was rejected as SPAM (see below where the message is rejected as exceeding the spam score 5.7). Can anyone determine why I cannot post to the dev group or suggest an approach so that I can post?
