Hello,
 
  We had another LISTSERV loop here last night. A large piece of mail
for INFO-M2 came in that was bigger than maxmail's value. The LISTSERV
machine began looping saying that it could not process the file over
and over again.
 
The contents of the 1 of the thousands of files :-) was:

I was able to kill many of the files here and Bill Rubin up at CUNYVM
trapped many of them also.
 
We are currently running VM/SP HPO 5.0, the error occurred under CMS Rel 4
and CMS Rel 5.0.
 
Has anyone else had this happen lately? I am going to shut down the list
when I leave today because I can't trust it. I will logon at midnight
and early morning over the weekend to transmit any held files.
 
Sorry for the network load,
 
Jim Ennis
