My mailing list has been flooded with error messages from UUCP machines. Since
the SENDER tag has been changed around to use the x!y!z format, LISTSERV
doesn't pick it up, and it doesn't flag a sender of "uucp". Below are two more
examples. HELP! I'm deleting the offending names, but this is killing my
list. Two people have unsubscribed already because of it.

====================END EXAMPLE # 1==================
Also, the above represents what I would LOVE to have idiot-proofed. If the
ListServ could read mail in the list and NOT send out any 100% valid command
files, it would stop dumb users from sending commands to everyone else...
But this is minor.

What can we do about these? Is there any patch that would solve this that
I could get ahold of? Thanks in advance for any help...
