This past week I've received about a dozen subscription approval requests
from the listserv that use the same email address for each user. These
are all different users and at different companies. Somewhere there's
a glitch in the system and I don't know what it is. Somehow legitimate
email addresses are being read as user address 'would.'
 
Here are the two messages I keep seeing:
