Just when I thought I had seen everything...
Yesterday I got a message from Listserv saying that one of our lists was
served off due to the 50 command limit. I've never seen this before, so I
did some checking of the list and I noticed that each mail sent to the
list was followed in the archives by the same mail, only it was sent to
LISTSERV. LISTSERV replied to the list with the usual error, the first
word of each line of the mail was followed by the "command unknown, try
help" messsages. I checked the headers of this mail sent to
owner-listserv and found one e-mail address in all of them:
[log in to unmask] up in the headers of the mail.
So, I deleted the subscriber because it "looked" like any mail
sent to his e-mail address was "bounced" to [log in to unmask]
I thought this because I sent him personal mail telling him why,
and that also bounced to listserv. [log in to unmask] just
sends an automatic reply.
I thought the problem was solved, but I received the
following mail and also served out the list below. That same
e-mail address is in the headers of this mail but to another list
at listserv@asuvm I sent mail yesterday to the
listowners but received no reply. I suspect that this same
person is subscribed to a list at Arizona State and all mail
from that list is being bounced to listserv here. It sounds
logical, but not probable. Has anyone else seen this or
something like this? I'd hate to think that every list this fellow is
on and all personal mail is going to listserv@post, it doesn't
make sense why someone would do that or even think of it.
Thanks, Trish
