There is more than one option available.  If your host site is running a
current version of LISTSERV(tm) ask the site administrator to update the
spam blacklist site configuration variables; they may use wildcards
there, such as *@ebay.com *@paypaL.com *@paypai.com and several others
that don't come to mind right now and I can't at this moment get the
list from my server.  Or ask the site administrator to change the SERVE
OFF status of the "problem" source addresses to SERVE OFF DROP instead
(again, requiring a current version).

But as a listowner, there isn't too much you can do yourself.  And most
likely you're not the only list owner at your host site who is suffering
from this annoyance, either.

I have been getting all kinds of emails from the listserv to my
listowner address pretending to be from Ebay, PayPal, etc.  A copy of
one of the error messages is below.  Is there anyway for me to set the
listserv to automatically deal with these kinds of error messages
instead of passing them along to me?
