That's odd. I'll ask it about you and see if it will talk to me.
You weren't on a who I did on June 19. But it should answer a which
or who whether you're on the list or not. [EMAIL PROTECTED] doesn't
seem to have any trouble.

Not necessarily. I get one of those back for every letter I send to the
list. Remember, every letter you sent to the list gets reflected back
to all subscribers. Somebody at tfs.iforget.fubar subscribed, and
neglected to unsubscribe before he stopped paying the bills or otherwise
closed the account. That mailserver is misconfigured, and it bounces
mail to From:, instead of Return-Path: or Sender:, so instead of tipping
off Majordomo that this subscriber is dead, it just annoys everybody on
the list.
If you got 2 copies of the last letter I sent, and this one, you are on
the list. If not, check .procmailrc if duplicate mail is being
filtered out. :-).

This mail client runs on Wine. Your mileage may vary.
