[meteorite-list] FROM THE ADMIN - RE: Membership disabled?

[Art Jones]

Hi List;

The email samples I've rec'd from everyone (thanks) are legitimate emails being sent by the list software when a user's bounce limit is reached.  If anyone receives one of these emails but is hesitant about clicking the re-enable link, go directly to your membership page and perform the same action there to re-enable your account.

I'm still looking into this issue but as William mentioned it probably has to do with new email standards changes recently implemented (see my email from 4/13/2014).  

Regards, Art

I hit the renewable button early today I haven't gotten any weird texts or anything. I hit it by accident so I'm probably negative 600$ in checking by now
