Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
Apparently MSN/Hotmail is bouncing all the Rootsweb lists...as a result after 4 bounces the Hotmail user gets unsubscribed. If you are a Hotmail user and find yourself suddenly not getting any mail, do as I have and go to yahoo or some other email for the time being. Rootsweb techs are working hard talking to Hotmail trying to get this cleared up as soon as possible.
You might not even realize you are getting bounced as you may still be getting some of the emails from your list. The best way to see if you are getting them would be to check the archives for each list you are on. The address for the Mayes archives search is:
http://listsearches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl?list=MAYES
You can insert the name of the surname or list you want to check in place of the Mayes.
Thank you for your understanding in this,

Since hotmail is bouncing all the rootsweb lists, I am having to set up a new email and am testing to see if this gets through.
Sorry for the inconvenience,
