A bouncing address for the list owner isn't good enough? When I was the Listserv admin here, that's all I needed - in fact, having a valid email address in the owner field was *required* for ownership of a list (ie. they had to be able to deal with the bounces). If the situation was one where the owner was real and just wasn't maintaining their list, well, that's a different case (and one where I would not intervene). > Some site aministrators wish the > lists would go away and won't help much, if at all.

Why are they running a list server then?
