I agree I could have been clearer ;-) RIchie explained one meaning. The one I had in mind is probably what you have in mind there, and seems more common: _someone_ at a company subscribes to a Mailman list with a corporate-internal mailing-list address, and then everyone on that company list gets the Mailman list traffic. Corporate communication being what it is ;-), often the end users have no idea why they're getting this stuff, and harangue the Mailman list owner to get them off. As it turned out, the OP in this case was getting this list's traffic via a generic "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" subscribed address. Since the conversation wasn't particularly pleasant <wink>, I didn't press to find out whether the OP subscribed that address themself, or was a victim of corporate, umm, enthusiasm. _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes Check the FAQ before asking: http://spambayes.sf.net/faq.html
