Hello,
 
I am neither a postmaster nor a subscriber to this list, but it was suggested
to me that I post a question here.  I am the system administrator for a VAX/VMS
system at the Temple University Dental School.
 
Here's my problem:  Three people at our site are subscribed to a listserv
list ([log in to unmask]). For some reason, unbeknownst to me, our
systems's mailer (UCX_SMTP)  is sending error messages to DBLIST.  These
error messages appear to be in some way connected to a bad user address in
the list subscription ([log in to unmask]).  What I can't figure out
is 1) why our system, which is in no way connected to the bad user address,
is generating error messages and 2) why the LISTSERV doesn't reject
messages which include the list address.
 
I have recently upgraded to a new version of DEC's TCP/IP software for
VMS (UCX V3.1, ECO Level 6).  This problem seems to coincide rather
neatly with the software upgrade.  I suppose it could be a coincidence,
but I'm suspicious.
 
Any suggestions as to how I can stop this from happening in the future
would be greatly appreciated.  The list owner can certainly remove the
offending address from the list, but my concern is that it will start up
again with the next bad address.  As I mentioned before, I am not
subscribed to this list, so please send responses directly to me.
A copy of one of the messages posted to DBLIST follows.
 
Many thanks,
Lissa Mosley
