Technically speaking, someone could subscribe to debian-user as [EMAIL PROTECTED], THEN activate forwarding from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to the real address. Most email services don't confirm that a person owns the address that they're forwarding to (although some now do). As to why someone would do it .. I dunno, grudge, sick practical joke, whatever... - Chris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
