Over the next few days we will be taking steps to manage the "bouncing
members" on the list using the tools that JISCMail has given us. the good
thing is that you should see no difference! But I am mentioning it to you
all because it is just possible you may see a difference.
One key area is in "bounce handling" (bounces are emails which fail
repeatedly to be delivered for technical reasons). JISCMail allows the list
to weed out "hard bounces" after they have bounced for a certain time period
and for a certain number of bounces.
It is just possible that it may pick up a false positive, hence my message
to you. If you stop receiving list messages for any reason please ask the
moderation team [log in to unmask] after you have
checked the website at http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/data-protection.html
to see if new messages have indeed been posted.
This bounce handling disregards all Out of Office (etc) messages. Please DO
continue to set NOMAIL when you set one of those.
regular posters will notice some shrinkage in the list as bouncing email
addresses are removed. All members who simply read the messages should
notice no difference
We will sometimes (rarely) send an administrative email to those with NOMAIL
set when something important is happening to the list itself.
