This highlights the danger of setting up an automatic bounce or 
reject, without sufficient monitoring.  He/she had to sign up in the 
first place.  If there was any reasonable monitoring it would quickly 
be noticed that list traffic was being affected.

However, there have been several cases where it has been obvious that 
people have not realised what they were signing up for.  I wonder if 
it is time we considered asking MandrakeSoft to add to the sign-up 
invitation the fact that signing up to an active list indicates a 
willingness to receive considerable amounts of mail?
