It appears that Mailman is appending the bounce message to the probe and in this case there were "a couple hundred" subscribers in the washington.hostforweb.net domain that bounced. In any case, this seems to be sufficient reason to not append the original bounce mesage to the probe. I'm far from fluent in Python, but it looks like either self.sendProbe(member, msg) in the routine def registerBounce(self, member, msg, weight=1.0, day=None): in Bouncer.py or outer.attach(MIMEMessage(msg)) in def sendProbe(self, member, msg): in Deliverer.py are places where this can be addressed. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
