I just received this comment and I'd like to bring it to the top and encourage you all to give this a try:

Said anonymous:
You're right. These email servers are set up for delivering SPAM!
Send a test message to both:
abuse@mamasource.com
postmaster@mamasource.com
and see for yourself what happens!

Unable to deliver message to the following address(es).
mail-domains-abuse@yahoo-inc.com:
216.145.48.97 does not like recipient.
Remote host said: 550 5.1.1 mail-domains-abuse@yahoo-inc.com... User unknown
Giving up.

Kate, don't you give up!!!
As you say, something just ain't right!

According to what I can gather, mail servers that can't accept mail to both a "postmaster@domainname" and "abuse@domainname" address are set up like many spam accounts. Then there is the issue of the whole PTR thing:
"Missing Reverse DNS record for MX records. It is required by RFC 1912 that you have reverse DNS (PTR) records for all of your mail servers. If you do not have reverse DNS entries, your email may not arrive some of the strict mail servers.
WARNING: One or more of your mailservers is claiming to be a host other than what it really is
And then there is the matter of Private Registration, which as someone who runs a website, I can understand, but Artie has chosen to go with a Private Registration company, leaving no contact information. And the hosting company he uses has no website and cannot be reached by telephone.
If Mamasource truly is a community site, why on earth is there no contact phone number and only one email address for contacting the site, an email address which seems to only spit out computer generated replies?
There are more questions than answers about Mamasource today.
