corresponding IP (the MX is hostmaster.dreamhost.com, which does not seem to
have an A record...)
I'll try to have another look in the morning. I only have a windows machine
here and I doubt windows can even resolve addresses properly :)
Cheers everyone :)

Just a normal regular system-update, debian security updates.
Mailman was updated as port of that, as was dovecot (imap),

updated rules which made ardour.org's misconfiguration eventually tip
over: lists.aroudr.org BAD_MX=8.925

keep in mind that ardour.org != foobar.ardour.org

OMG ROFL LOL
ok, I misread what nslookup was tring to tell me... let's forget abour this
stupid MS tool. I took a look on my laptop to see what record really was
there. it seems lists.ardour.org really doesn't have an MX record. Only
ardour.org has. so now the question is, why the hell do the ardour mailing
lists work :)
Dreamhost might have stepped on a cable on their end... :D

They just _dream_ of MX records :-X
Anyway, there seems to be sth fishy about linuxaudio.org's mail system
as well. My last email only reached Paul and you. linuxaudio.org
refused to send them to Fons and LAU.
"Recipient address rejected: Mail appeared to be SPAM or forged."
While I appreciate a rigorous SPAM filter, the current settings are
probably somewhat too strict. Maybe some of the recent updates added to
your stringent policy-weight configuration. I don't exactly know how you
locked down LAO's mail system. Would you mind taking a look?
best,
robin

a day or two after dreamhost supposedly fixed it:
paul@sextet[2538]>host lists.ardour.org
lists.ardour.org has address 66.33.216.179
lists.ardour.org mail is handled by 0 lists.ardour.org.
