I can not send email to the sourceforge email list from the sourceforge server.

My IDS and Security Management Platform on sourceforge went up for couple of weeks now and received great response from the community. To be able to serve my friends better, I decided to create the email list to keep them updated although they can use RSS now already. And I want to send out site update to the email list so they can be more involved. Last night when I tried to create email notification to the list from sourceforge server, everything went well except I could not get the email from the list. I did a trace from database to the php cron job and found out the email sent out to the list address just got lost somewhere. Tried to send email to my personal email address from the same sourceforge server and it went through just fine. Looks like some issue inside sourceforge cloud somewhere so I stopped and had to ask sourceforge support for help later. And I will update once I get this issue resolved.

This is great they are show to us if our email are always failed for sending. Now we know how to do it if we encounter like this. http://www.moneyline.sg/creditcards

It's resolved.

Turned out the emails were waiting for approval as the send from address of my application was not in the subscriber list. After added the address into the list, email sending to the list address is working now.
