Mail server.

So, following hardware problems, we've moved our web and mail server to new locations.

We have now found an example of an account on hermes.cam.ac.uk which can receive mail from yahoo.co.uk but not from us (the bounce error message, helpfully, is "Error.", and is generated by cyrus CMU sieve); and also an example of an account on hermes which does not generate a bounce (haven't had a response yet so don't know if the mail actually was received).

Anyone know anything more about Hermes' spam filtering?

EDIT: it's a private filter belonging to the person in question that was triggered. Panic over.

Well, [livejournal.com profile] fanf would know everything, but I guess it's politer to email him with his webmaster hat on than bother him on LJ.
