Thank you so much Diane for posting.

Another listserv member wrote to me a few hours ago with a very similar 
question.  I found that she was indeed a member of the listserv, and 
that she was in "digest mode", and that yes our listserv system had sent 
her plenty of emails in recent days. None of which, she says, she 
received.  I then went manually into a "track delivery" function in our 
hosting system that provides the listservs.  I plugged in her email 
address, and the system said that her email service provider had 
affirmatively confirmed receipt of all of those emails.  It seemed 
pretty clear that she needed to whitelist the relevant IP address (which 
is 66.29.132.148) and the relevant source email address (in her case, 
e-trademarks-bounces at oppedahl-lists.com).  Her IT people swore up and 
down that they were not discarding the emails.  I am skeptical about 
what her IT people said.

When I saw what you wrote, my first step was to carry out similar 
investigative steps.  I logged in and did a manual lookup in the 
membership database for the e-trademarks listserv.  And yes, there is no 
doubt that "diane at mmip.com" is a member of the listserv.  it was in 
"digest" mode and I changed it to non-digest mode.  (You can always 
change it back to digest mode later if you wish.)

Your email service provider (this is a matter of public record, anybody 
could find it out) is "mmip-com.mail.protection.outlook.com" at an IP 
address of 52.101.194.3.  Quoted in this table are fourteen recent 
emails for which your email service provider explicitly "accepted" the 
email and acknowledged receipt of the email.

I also note that anybody who wonders if there are messages being posted, 
that the person is failing to receive, can always check the archive, for 
example 
https://oppedahl-lists.com/mailman/private/e-trademarks_oppedahl-lists.com/ 
, to see if they are failing to receive postings.

I'll suggest that you find out how to "whitelist" things in your email 
system.  (The way to do it is different from one email system to the 
next.)  One thing to whitelist is 66.29.132.148. Another thing to 
whitelist is the various "bounces at oppedahl-lists.com" email addresses 
from the table above.
