 <b>Bacula</b> has a number of email lists which are described below with

+Source Forge has rather strict email requirements in order to
+try to minimize the large quantity of spam that the lists receive every day.
+These are mesures that they have implemented, and over which we have no
+control.
+
+If you are having problems subscribing or sending email to a Bacula list,
+please, read the following: <a href="http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=6695&group_id=1">
+SourceForge.net: Email Problems: Spam, Bounces, Unreceived Messages</a>, then
+if you are still having problems send a support request to Source Forge.
+Source Forge requires the person affected submit his/her own support request;
+the Bacula project is not permitted to do so on your behalf.  
+
+One item they do not mention in the above referenced document is grey listing.
+If you are using grey listing, you are likely to have problems with the Source
+Forge email lists.  The solution is to whitelist their sending IPs.  You might
+want to whitelist their whole zone (66.35.250.0/24) as I (Kern) have done, but
+if you are more conservative, I found only two of their IPs were sending email
+(66.35.250.225 and 66.35.250.206).  If you grey list individual Source Forge
+IP addresses, please be sure to check your logs to verify the addresses they
+use for you.
