All-

This has been happening here at GW, and not just with Listserv. Users of 
other mail clients (Thunderbird and Sun Java System Messenger Express 
specifically come to mind) have been sporadically reporting similar 
issues for over a year. We were able to push a fix for managed clients 
via our patch management systems, but users whose desktops are not 
centrally managed still run into this from time to time.
