Neat huh? But the list server has a } totally cool feature that allows one to scan for any part of an email } address or name. So scanning for indesso comes up with } [log in to unmask] who IS (was) subscribed. I am guessing here, but I assume that the "indesso-" is added in the internal processing of the receiving mailer, and wasn't intended to go back to you. "INDESSO.COM" may be a phantom domain hosted by the actual hosting service, and "indesso-Joko.Nugroho" is generated to make sure it doesn't conflict with "Joko.Nugroho" at another hosted virtual domain. } This variability would be eliminated if LSOFT list servers would add a } consistant note as to the email address of the member they are sending the } message to. This has been discussed earlier, and would defeat Listserv's ability to save on overhead by sending all messages destined for xyz.com in one transmission.
