This person is getting this message up to 200 times a day. He is no
longer on the Arch-L list and can't figure out why the messages keep coming.
The ARCH-L listowner (David Carlson at Texas A&M) is currently in Guatemala.
Can someone tell me what is happening?

t

N

D

>3. You might be subscribed under an equivalent yet different address - fo
r

t

"

,

M

e
