It's ROO.  Or at any rate, it's a problem with a DNS server in the UIC.EDU
domain.  Until they fix it, you'll get those errors.

It sounds like you're in a loop with the majordomo server.  You might try
serving out [log in to unmask], because until LISTSERV stops responding
to majordomo, majordomo will just keep sending back helpful messages
about what commands are available with lots and lots of ">" quote characters
in them.  I'd also complain to the idiots running the majordomo server
(and you and I both know who they are:).  Anyway, this is just a case
where LISTSERV keeps saying, "I don't know what you're saying" and
majordomo replies, "Excusez moi?  Je ne comprendre pas."  :)
 
(Pardon my French...I haven't studied it for a few years.)
