Some lunatic has added a blizzard support alias to the list. This happens constantly. I don't know if some IIS-head out there does it to annoy the tomcat community. I used to think that it was an email address harvesting trick, but I haven't been able to figure out how. The result is that every blessed posting solicits one of these replies. They are more amusing when the list in question replies in dutch.
