That's me! Well, actually, I don't think I'm quite that bad... :-)

Just so people on the list know, about once a day I check for list
admin request (subscribe or unsubscribe that couldn't be processed
automatically or messages that got caught by the list's administrivia
filter and need to be approved.

I usually let the bounces gather up for a week or so, and process them
all at once. I'll usually ignore the obviously temporary ones (quota
exceeded, mail configuration error, Duplicate BID, etc), and remove
you on the more permanent errors (user unknown, etc). I can also get a
feel from a week's worth of bounces whether someone has a real
problem, or it was just a fluke that bounced it.

If you haven't gotten mail for a while, you should be able to send
email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "which <your-email-address>"
in the body of the message. That'll tell you which lists at
vger.rutgers.edu you're subscribed to...
