  Yep, a couple of other people may have noticed this also...

   When I was researching the recent spam problem I found out that the list
filter (which rejects all messages that come from non-members) wasn't working.
So, I got it working, and now a few people's posts were being rejected, mainly
due to small differences between the address they subscribed as and the
address they post as.

 
   For example, if you subscribed as user@whatever.company.com, the list
won't allow you to post as user@company.com.

   However, if you subscribe as user@company.com, the list *will* allow
you to post as user@company.com OR user@whatever.company.com. So, for a
few people, I had to unsubscribe you as user@whatever.company.com and
re-subscribe you as user@company.com. I think you were one of those,
Patrick.
