This is especially useful on busy lists; nobody appreciates having to wade through multi-MB multi-thousand message digests every few days. So the autoresponse I mentioned would be large enough to warrant another digest (after all, it /contains/ a digest). Repeat ad nauseum, or till mail spool overflows, or till mailing list or autoresponding server dies, whichever comes first. > it'd be interesting though if he subscribed to the standard list and > his autoresponder ended up responding to its own autoresponses ... It would take somewhat longer. The digest cascade is more immediate, and far more lethal. - Adrian ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

Reminds me of a loop we had at one stage ... 2 mail servers, both bounce virus infected emails from external servers and sends a warning mail to the intended recipient but one didn't block infected emails from being sent out. A user from that one sends an infected email to the other. You could imagine the flurry of activity that could have happened if an admin wasn't just by chance at the server console ... hehe >Actually, if Tom's autoresponder had quoted the entire digest back, as >did happen in a couple of the abovementioned storms, all our inboxes >could be stuffed to the gills in 5 mins.

Actually, if Tom's autoresponder had quoted the entire digest back, as did happen in a couple of the abovementioned storms, all our inboxes could be stuffed to the gills in 5 mins. Nasty.
