I've been living in the south since I was 6 years old and I don't believe I said "ya'll" in coversation as much as [EMAIL PROTECTED] took the time to spell it out in his response. jk *lol* On Fri, 19 Nov 1999, you wrote: > On Thu, 18 Nov 1999, you wrote: > > I'm replying to the topic (?), not just this post.

The problem is with racetrac.com, who is a client of mindspring.com. Racetrac.com had an employee who signed up for the list with their work address @racetrac.com. Now that they are no longer there, their email address no longer exists. That is why the mail is bouncing. John

I'm replying to the topic (?), not just this post. Seems to me y'all, that the complaints about the 'problem' are out numbering the 'problem' by 3 to 1. The 'complaints/ childish treats of retaliation /plans of ner' do well are now the 'problem'! Folks, there's a little key marked 'Delete', that's usually the best solution for unwanted mail. If y'all want a unfettered list it'll need to be moderated any volunteers?? no?, I didn't think so . Tom Brinkman[EMAIL PROTECTED] .

That would have been too much like customer service. I got a HILARIOUS message from them this afternoon asking me to call their "help desk" to resolve the issue, because it's CLEARLY a configuration issue on my end. HA! I'd really love to call and screw with the help desk guy's mind about the problem. "Are you a MindSpring subscriber?" "Why are you calling us?" "What do you expect us to do?" Almost makes it seem like fun! I take enough of these calls myself during the day to inflict that sort of pain on anyone else though... -- Steve Philp Network Administrator Advance Packaging Corporation [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Well, *I* am a paying customer...and they were only marginally nicer to me. I sent the response to the list.
