I don't know what this means but I have been getting regular osprey messages.
 My address has been the same for years.

I just got this from the computer guys list:

Apparently people sending to the listserver via AOL could get some
messages through, but anyone sending mail from a non-AOL server wasn't
able to connect to make the delivery. If you haven't received an error
message from your local mail server (i.e., "your mail could not be
delivered, will keep trying for X hours...") your mail should make it
through to the list just fine once it processes through the queue.
