|ListOwners,

|I own a small list ([log in to unmask]) in which I limit subscription by

|sometimes sends me his/her e-mail address (on paper) and it is wrong!
Usually
|when I subscribe such a user Listserv quickly lets me know that the
address is
|incorrect and I can contact the user and get the correct address. However,
|recently I had a couple of addresses which were wrong (I know this
because when
|I e-mailed them directly I did get an error message returned) but Listserv
|flagged up no fault when they were subscribed. I have not set any "Errors-to"
|path so I presume that all errors should come back to myself.
|
|Any ideas ?
Yes: never trust a hand-written email address! Not only can there be
transcription errors, but some folks simply don't know their correct
email address.
ERRORS-TO field? Exactly WHERE is this field specified? The BIOTUROR-L
list definition keyword?
ERROR-TO=
Some RFC822 field?
ERROR-TO:
