Today we had a mailstorm on the PCSUPT-L@YALEVM list when all mailings to [log in to unmask] were rejected and then recurrently redistributed! Apparently [log in to unmask] creates an invalid From: line when rejecting mail: (use "<-->" instead of <-->) FROM: Pasarela EAN <--> PMDF <[log in to unmask]> but I don't see why LISTSERV@YALEVM redistributed the rejected mail to the list instead of redirecting it to a postmaster. What else is wrong? Thanks for your help.
