Just received this mail and thought I should warn you all. There's
some automatted service at Ohio State that is not getting along with
Listserv. I've had too many mail rejections today, so my reading of
these headers may be wrong. But I think that Ohio State is sending
mail out with a From: address that cannot receive mail. And the
mail rejection that comes back doesn't seem to trigger Listserv's
"ignore this junk" tests right away. In fact, I don't know what
stopped this loop. I've appended "*"s to the raw headers in the
following note and truncated the file. It went on for hundreds of
lines, all similar to the lines that end this note.

Your mail message that you sent to a computer user on the HPUXA

underline to connect the first, middle, and last name.

3. You may get help for either of the services above by sending mail
to the service:
a. Get help information about the osu.edu mail forwarding
service by sending mail to "[log in to unmask]". The only line
in the message should read, "SEND FUZZE.HLP".
