I have received a note from someone at Memphis State Univ telling me that
one of his users is receiving stuff from [log in to unmask] even
though that user has tried to unsubscribe.  The user does not currently
seem to be subscribed, his name does not appear in the name field, and he
is not a hidden subscriber; I checked.  From my records I verified that he
indeed used to be subscribed at admin2.memst.edu.  Why would he still be
getting stuff?
 
I read in this forum a suggestion that someone with a similar problem send
mail individually to each subscriber to see if the mystery recipient was
getting forwarded mail from a legitimate subscriber, but I am kind of
balking at that for three reasons.  One; that sounds like a real pain.
Two; I don't see any evidence in the headers that the list items are being
forwarded.  A Received: from header implies that mail items go directly
from the listserv site to the user's mailbox on admin2.memst.edu.  All
headers are included below.  And three, I hate to disturb all subscribers
with such a test posting.
 
Any ideas out there?
