I think that IP block is still blacklisted

The story here is that the earlier mailing-list server was
base3.freestandards.org on which the mailman service was disabled.
Apparently DNS info hasn't percolated well enough with the updated
entries and a lot of stuff was queued to be sent to the old mail server.
I've started mailman on the old server , so now we actually have a
situation where there are two mailing-list services running.What's going
to happen now is that mail should reach the subscribers, so that's
good , but we're going to have an inconsistent archive.
I'll rsync the archives  later on when the DNS issues are fixed

Hopefully stuff is fixed to a slightly more acceptable degree ...
