it appears that, while wizard is unknown on the koenig.su domain, that domain is in kalingrad, russia, but it's not a domain in the conventional sense and they have a mighty weird way of assigning email addresses--albeit consistent with their weird way of dealing with undeliverable mail. apparently, the responsible entity for mail addresses of the koenig.su type is enet.ru, and the postmaster address for that domain is [EMAIL PROTECTED] so what are the options here? should it be handed off to the list admin? i don't relish the thought of trying to educate an apparently incompetent administrator at enet.ru about the flaws in their ridiculously unique mail strategy. ben -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
