I have  three email accounts registered with this reflector-icloud, gmail

bounces.
I don't think it has anything to do with only sending a message to  the
reflector but receiving. I haven't sent a message to this reflector  for
quite awhile up until this message.

Can someone explain what, if anything, I can do to  avoid this problem in 
the
future?

I have read the posts and looked  at other information on the internet. My
mail address is not Yahoo, Hotmail  etc. so is the problem with the original
sender of the mail?

Keep it  simple if possible ... I have never understood all the complexities
of how  email works .. like many others, I am just a computer *user* !
