I'm having trouble understanding what Listserv does with these. Some of them come to me as listowner, identified as errors, of a couple of kinds -- sometimes "The enclosed message has been identified as a delivery error for the xxx list because it was sent to [log in to unmask]"; sometimes because "mail origin is listed in the "Filter=" list header keyword (or its default value for the xxx list)." Some go to the original poster, as Pete suggests: > If a poster to a list receives an OOO from a subscriber, then > indeed, you would not be able to control that via automated > facilities. From time-to-time, YOU should post some > productive or administrative message to the list and > "experience" these first hand. And, at least once in the last month, one was distributed to the entire list and stored in the archive. I can't see what the factors are that determine what happens when people set these things up, and I'd like to be able to advise them how to do it to cause the least inconvenience. Where is this documented? Has anybody else run into this? -- Russ St. Thomas University http://www.StThomasU.ca/~hunt/
