Hello Sage Listserv Wizzards:
A faculty member here who maintains several mailing lists from outside of the
temple.edu domain where the list's are hosted on vm.temple.edu informed me a
that she recently stopped receiving error messages from all of her lists.
This is despite the fact that some of the lists contain subscriptions for
addresses that don't exist (because of incorrectly added subscriptions).
This lack of errors problem has been occurring (or not) for about one week,
just before we upgraded from Listserv 1.8b to 1.8c.
To investigate this problem, I took a list called Vatican2 which this woman
maintains and I added myself as a non-quiet owner. I also added a
subscription to the list with a bogus e-mail address. This was done
yesterday afternoon. After a few postings to the list since I added the
bogus subscription, I have not received any error messages. Even the
notification message that was sent to this bogus address when I added it to
the list was not returned to me because it was undeliverable. I also sent an
e-mail message directly to this same bogus address. That message was prompty
returned to me and marked as undeliverable mail so I am pretty sure that the
mailer on vm.temple.edu, which is the L-soft product, is working just fine.
I am also getting some error messages for other lists that are hosted here.
I am mystified as to why these few lists, all owned by the same two people,
have stopped delivering error messages to the owners. The error messages
appear to go into the ether. They are not on my postmaster account nor have
any of error messages been mistakenly delivered to the lists' subscribers.
The Vatican2 list also does not have the "Auto-Delete" keyword included in it
at all. The "Errors-To" header and the owner's e-mail addresses are all
correct, including mine, yet no errors are appearing anywhere even though
they certainly should be. Does anyone have any ideas about where those error
messages are going and they're not being delivered to th list's owner?
A copy of the header of the Vatican2 list is included below for your
