Some of you have recently been receiving rejection messages from Listserv
about your post being rejected because it contained an attachment called
NotesDocAssentor.NOTE.
(Thanks to Paul Gilmartin for sending me an entire intact example complete
with the headers...or I would have never figured out what was going on.)
The problem stems from a subscribers mailer that was sending back to
Listserv, postings it received making it appear it came from the original
author.
So, when Paul sent an email to the list, it went through like it was
supposed to. This mailer received a copy and bounced it back to Listserv
making it appear like it came from Paul. Of course, it just HAD to add
some stupid attachment to it before bouncing it. Listserv rejected the
attachment and notified Paul. If the email had not had an attachment, Paul
would have received a message about a duplicate posting.
The clue was, when Paul sends a msg out from stortek.com, the first
mailer his mail client contacts is a stortek.com mailer like below:
Received: (from [EMAIL PROTECTED])

From: Paul Gilmartin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
However, the rejection looked like:
Received: from xxx.xxx.com ([xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]) by
yyy.yyy.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(6.0.3790.3959);

Anyhow, the subscriber has been set to NOMAIL, so you shouldn't see
any more rejection notices. Sorry for the confusion.
In the future, if you see weirdness with the list, please contact
me personally and not discuss it on the list. I don't always read
each posting to IBM-MAIN, so I won't see your discussion of the
problem.
