Exactly. I use @googlemail.com because that was the sole domain name in
use when I was issued the address (I've had it since the service was in beta)
and I can't be bothered to switch, but I send mail through smtp.gmail.com.
Really, the big problem here is not that Lisi and I are losing the occasional mail,
or even that we might get involuntarily unsubscribed, it's that someone popping
in here briefly for help may never see the responses to their message! We can't
ask casual visitors to switch email accounts just for the sake of this list.

There is surely no real difference between Gmail and Googlemail?

Every Gmail User has two Gmail Addresses
Surprised?? When a user creates a new Gmail.com account, he actually gets two
email addresses. The first one is the regular @gmail.com id while the second
one is @googlemail.com id. It is because the domains gmail.com and
Googlemail.com are interchangeable.

http://gmailgeek.com/facts/gmail-vs-google-mail-the-difference-explained.ht… The lists.pearsoncomputing.net is re-emailing all
subscribed incoming
emails to the user list. Each of those emails _claims_ to be From:
the
original sender. But, when Gmail (or whoever) asks if the original
sender (e.g. Jonesy <trinity(a)jonz.net> ) is authorized to send via
that
MTA, the answer is "NO".
Earlier today messages on the list prompted me to enable DKIM, now I'm
regretting it. It would seem anyone posting with a DKIM header is at
risk. Intersting thing is that it appears that posts from gmail.com
don't have a DKIM header, but those from googlemail.com do (does gmail
reject those?).
