I just sent a test to myself on fencepost and it is working fine for
me.  And also a test from fencepost to my normal account.  I don't see
any problems.

That is normal.  Mail for @gnu.org addresses are received by eggs.

  host -t mx gnu.org
    gnu.org mail is handled by 10 eggs.gnu.org.

After eggs receives it the message is relayed on internally.

None of us here have anything to do with admining fencepost, lists, or
the pumprock fsfstatus page.  That is only the FSF admins.  And of
course the way to reach them is with a mail to address@hidden  They
keep a tight lock on access to all of those things.  So even if things
were really messed up and broken all we could do is comiserate with
each other about it.
