It's not my doing. The gateway isn't even in the path. The problem
appears to be a misbehaving server at "Euronet" (euronetis.no). See below
for details.
 
I will, however, shut down the gateway between bit.listserv.lstsrv-l and
LSTSRV-L until the problem has been resolved. That should stop the
postings from getting to LSTSRV-L, although it will stop b.l.lstsrv-l
from getting posts to or from LSTSRV-L and vice versa.

It appears a significant number of articles from euronetis.no on OS/2
discussion topics have been introduced into the revised listserv mail-server
discussion.
 
Please check your news configuration to make sure these articles get into
the right newsgroup - probably bit.listserv.os2-l, but in any case not
bit.listserv.lstsrv-l.  It looks like there may be other problems as well,
based on the e-mail address in the 'From:' vs the one at the bottom of the
article, but I'm not sure if this is consistent.
 
Thanks in advance, Doug
