I would also like to know this, as I periodically have to delete autodel files
for lists that don't exist, although nowhere near as many as 77,000, but I
see things like:

!.autodel
$randomnumber$.autodel
$randomword$.autodel
*.hotmail.com.autodel
0.autodel
我想应征业务代表回条.autodel
香港英美公司协会.autodel
新婚计划之健康紧急充电.autodel

With spam seemingly to be an ever increasing problem, listserv should have
some mechaninsm to be able to clean up itself from things like this.
