[Hidden-tech] Mail chimp, etc., question

[Graham Clarke]

just an FYI - MailChimp monitors the content of emails sent through 
their service and will block accounts they believe are spamming. This is 
great unless you inadvertently get blocked by MailChimp.

If your emails do get blocked the headers and blocked messages should 
help explain why this is happening.
