Pardon me. That was in response to one user’s request.  If you are using a gmail address, I would suggest that you send the following command TO THE LISTSERV:

Send to:

listserv@gerry.vanagon.com

Subject line is ignored

Command: SET VANAGON SUBJECTHDR

Then visit your gmail page and whitelist any email with “[VANAGON]” in the subject.

That may help. Beyond that, I have no other suggestions. Maybe you can get some help from Google, but I wouldn’t count on it. If a message is in the archives, the listserv is sending it.

Regards,

Jim

I have set the server to add [VANAGON} at the beginning of each subject line. I would suggest that you set your gmail account to whitelist any email containing “[VANAGON]” in the subject line.
