Sure if I had sent it to an address that's not advertised rather than the one 
that was on the LA web site it might have worked better.  But really it should 
just work.

I haven't had good success with that.  On the 12th of January 2015 I had an 
email I sent to [email protected] bounce from your address because 
your server does SPF checks and at that time rejected mail that had gone 
through the LA server.

On at least two occasions I've sent mail to LA council members because the 
list didn't like them and asked if they could raise the issue of the LA list 
not accepting SPF protected mail.

As an aside our discussion in January 2015 was sparked by me experimenting 
with DMARC and causing a bunch of people to be forcibly unsubscribed from this 
mailing list when hotmail and maybe some other servers rejected the messages.
