Greetings,
All thru the day, our LISTSERV has been receiving files from the userid
[log in to unmask] These files, which seem to be part of some larger program, are
naturally rejected by the server, as they are not valid Listserv commands.
At the time I write this, we have received 34 such files; a listing of
one is appended below.
Two questions come to mind:
1) Will this senseless transmission of irrelevant files continue, with
the consequent waste of net bandwith and CPU ?
2) Has any other server been subjected to a similar bombardment ?
Thanks for your help. (BTW, C0@ESOC has LONG since been served out, but
that doesn't stop the flow).
