Hmm.... Not sure how I e-mail myself from someone else's address. I
have contacted the source, and they say that they are sending me mail
from that address. They suggest that my server may be blocking the
address, but why that would coincide with my TB update I can't say.
They further suggest that I look at the spam folders at my server, but
neither .Mac or Suddenlink have such folders.

If you have contact with the newsletter admin, have him/her evaluate the
return bounced mail sent to you. That should provide a clue.

when they mean server, they're talking about your email
provider. Follow the suggestion provided by Jay.

You mail that address from another email address of yours
this checks the receiving capabilities of the address
You mail that address from that same address
this checks the sending capabilities of address (and most likely the
receiving as well)
*some isps route internal mail differently so it may be somewhat
different than when sent from an external mail address
Note any error messages received
i.e. mail that address from your yahoo address and then try to mail that
address from that address itself.

You lost me on the third line of your most recent reply. Probably makes
sense to you, but not me.

Re: blocked site...not by me
Something like that happened with newsletters I had been receiving for
years but my issue started with Windows Mail. That's why I switched to
Thunderbird.
I did find out though after about two or three months searching for why
I was no longer receiving the newsletters. My ISP had instituted a new
spam software. I happened to look at one of the headers more closely of
an email I received and found the name of the software company, wrote to
them and they directed me to my service provider.
I don't know what .Mac or Suddenlink are, maybe they are connected to
your ISP.
Hope you can find out soon what's happening with your email. I know for
me it was an aggravation until I found out what was happening!

You have several mail addresses right?
Well try mailing the one you are worried about from one of your other ones.
THEN, try mailing the one you are worried about from itself.

Unless I am mistaken, Stephen, you're saying that a third party, using
some particular address (newslet...@americanpublicmedia.org) is
sending you mail, but around the time you upgraded to Tb 2.0.0.6 you
stopped receiving them, whereas before you received them no problem.
You say you can receive them via your Yahoo account (I assume when
using the Web Mail / browser based Yahoo! interface).
I assume by your mentioning about looking for spam folders on your
Suddenlink web mail page that there is absolutely no folder in your
web mail account named spam, junk, etc? I also assume that you are
referring to not being able to receive this newsletter through your
Suddenlink account, which you are using Tb to download?
I believe what Dan meant was for you to try to sign up for the
newsletter using a different email account, to see if you can receive
the newsletter through another account (and I think he means one that
you actually download through Tb as well). If that works, then you
should try emailing back to the newsletter from the account that
works. A good one to try is GMail, as you can use POP to get your
mail just like your ISPs account, without installing any extra
extensions.
However, not being sure what version of Thunderbird you are using, but
guessing the Mac version, another way you could eliminate whether it
is Thunderbird causing the problem or not would be to use the Webmail
extension (http://webmail.mozdev.org/index.html) to get your Yahoo
mail through Thunderbird - if Tb is filtering that domain as junk, and
if you set up the Yahoo account to use your global junk mail rules,
then it too will filter out those message from that newsletter as
well, proving then that it is something that Tb is doing. On my Tb
there is a Junk mail folder under local folders, which is located
under all the accounts I have in Tb (at the bottom).
Granted, I have not used a Mac version of Tb as I don't own a Mac, but
I would hope that the interface would be pretty similar, so that
multiple, OS specific help files would to have to be written....

But I can't mail from the source that isn't arriving. It's:
newsletter@americanpublicmedia.org. I can't see how mailing myself from
one of MY addresses resolves the problem. Guess I'm dumber than I thought.

what Dan is say is to send a message from one of your good
accounts to your problem account. Does the message bounce?
If so, then report the results here. If not, then let us know.
From my understanding is you can receive the newsletter at
your yahoo account, and its there when you login using a
browser. But, when you download the message into TB, its
not there. Am I correct on this assumption. If so, then
check your message filters [under Tools]. Maybe you have it
going somewhere else. Also, check your junk folders.
Perhaps its going there.

Suddenlink is not the culprit. The newsletter arrives there OK. That
leave either my .Mac account, which is my mail server, or TB.

I will try to find a way to ask Apple, but you know they make it nearly
impossible to ask anything.

I will try this as well. My suspicion is that it's Apple that is doing
the filtering, but my messages to them have gone unanswered. No
surprise there.
BTW, this problem, is platform neutral. The newsletter is filtered out
of my Windows machine as well.

This webmail.mozdev site is for FF, not TB. I tried to download from
the link you gave, but it says it's not compatible with FF. So, how do
I install this stuff in TB?

When you click on the link you're trying to install it into
FF. Of course its not for FF. You have to right click on
the link and select Save Target As, save it to your hard
drive, then from TB, click on Tools, Addons, Extensions,
click on the Install button, and find the xpi file.

Yep. Figured it out. Problem was, I was on my Mac with no right
click. Also, the latest Mac OS no longer allows you to click/hold and
select options such as "Save as." You have to drag the item to the
desktop. Thanks for hanging in there with me.
