Why is the user list the only one that has this issue?

It is the busiest list, thus the bounce probability might
be the highest.

And yes, yell to your provider. Everyone and her dog coming
up with random policies is what's killing email.

Does one email constitute "persistently undeliverable"?

5xx error indicate that, read the SMTP RFCs.

I hope that the Debian listmasters get back to you with more
details, but I interpret Spectrum's reject message to mean that all
mails from Debian's IP from that time forward will be rejected. It
is likely a lot more than one email.

Again, you have evidence that Spectrum is rejecting Debian's email
to you just because there is a lot of it. What do you expect anyone
here or at Debian to do about that?

Thanks,
Andy

I have only one email that was rejected.

The SMTP server on bendel.debian.org should have resent?  No?

I have no evidence of that, the error from spectrum only occured that 
one time and bendel.debian.org did not resend or try again as far as I 
can determine.  Then it appears I was booted.

How many emails at that time did bendel.debian.org send?

I have no answer for that as I am not the one that can answer that.

How many connections did bendel.debian.org have?

I have no answer for that as I am not the one that can answer that.

In one word: No.

Because the mail in question was rejected by the recipient MTA
(pkvw-mx.msg.pkvw.co.charter.net) with a PERMANENT error. This is
clearly shown in your message-ID <43410a14-1689-418a-8152-d734e3d81c94@columbus.rr.com>.

SMTP 5xx response codes are _permanent errors_. They indicate that the
_sender_ needs to fix something about the message for delivery to be
possible; the situation will not resolve itself. This has been
specified since the original SMTP standard in 1982; see RFC 821
appendix E (page 48-49). https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc821#page-48

In the current standard, the same thing is specified (using almost
exactly the same wording, even) in RFC 5321 section 4.2.1.
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5321#section-4.2.1

If your ISP had done the right thing and rejected with a 4xx response,
as is customary in for example overload conditions, then the sending
MTA would have kept that message in its outbound queue and retried
later, and we wouldn't have this long meta-discussion.

If your ISP's mail servers can't even speak proper SMTP, please don't
expect that everyone else on the Internet will bend over backwards to
cater to a non-standard implementation.

Okay, this is my last attempt to ask you to be constructive: if your
email provider rejects Debian's emails to you because there are too
many of them, what do you propose happens to solve that issue?

The most disruptive symptom of that issue for you is that Debian's
mailing list manager automatically unsubscribes you. I don't think
that Debian will spend effort making that not happen, because in
general it is the right thing to do for persistently undeliverable
addresses like yours. But even if they did, it would not fix the
root problem for you as you'd still be missing a lot of Debian email.

Thanks,
Andy

We are just trying to help you with the strange policies of your
email provider that make it hard for you to participate in Internet
mailing lists. It's not our fault and if you are going to go from
bombarding us with pointless admin commands to snarky responses then
why should we bother? At least we are getting somewhere now, instead
of just leaving you to howl into the void.

I can see how it will bias against debian-user if debian-user
happens to be the busiest Debian list that you are on. A greater
percentage of debian-user's emails will be rejected by Spectrum.

Thanks,
Andy

You have seen just one bounce. Do you know your provider has shown you
all of them? Perhaps they bounced the other missing ones...

The kick score was 2% as stated in the bounce email from debian, that 
tells me it was < 10 emails and from reading the bounce email from 
debian it was only one.

Still doesn't provide and answer for why I was kicked after one email 
bounced.

at 2% I had a long way to go before I hit the 76% death ray

This kind of sarcasm is not constructive.

You send a mail or open a ticket.

If they do not fix the issue and do not give a good explanation, you
take your mail archives and you move to a mail operator that respects
you.

If you cannot do that easily, all the more reason to do it.

They ask Debian to try again later, but they do it with a
permanent reject code.

I think you need a new email provider.

For many years my SMTP server has requested an ident (TCP port 113)
from outside sending servers. Since nobody now runs ident servers,
there will be no reply, and my server waits for a timeout of thirty
seconds before continuing. All legitimate mail servers will wait that
long, spambots won't.

But a failure by these mechanisms would be reasonably repeatable.

My server has occasionally rejected Debian list posts for lack of DNS
information, presumably when the DNS server is very busy. This is not
repeatable, and is quite rare. It never happens multiple times, so my
score never gets anywhere near unsubscription.

I was once kicked off because my phone line died for several days. I'm
not sure a temporary server failure is a good reason for unsubscribing
someone.

Good admins don't use DROP in firewalls, so either you get a TCP RST
(because no application listens on that port) or a ICMP administratively
prohibited, so your server knows that no identd runs there and can
continue.
