I also run a neighborhood email list and ran into the same problem in the past. AOL and Yahoo are owned by Verizon and you are probably having the same issue with Verizon (though Verizon might not be popular in your neighborhood and therefore you don’t see it). At any rate, in my experience Verizon was the root of the problem. I solved this problem by diligently making sure SPF and DKIM were correctly set up. Once I had those set up correctly, the problems disappeared.

Hi everyone. I have a dedicated Ubuntu box that is running mailman3. I have a single email list on it. The subscriber base is about 350 users. There is a good chunk of these users that are aol.com or yahoo.com users. I've been getting complaints from the Yahoo people that mail is delayed at times, or messages that come out of order.
Looking at the mailq on the box, I can see there are plenty of emails stuck in the queue. I have all sorts of messages like this ...

So it seems that Yahoo/AOL keeps detecting my mailman3 server as either spam, sending too much email, or too many recipients.
This email server is for our neighborhood community. Its moderated to join, and we know every single user on this list. We know it's not being reported as spam by our users.
Anyone anyone shed some light on how to appropriately solve this issue?
