Chances are you've posted on a Debian list recently. It looks like spam. It isn't technically spam. But it is annoying. Some ISP somewhere has the idea that it has to challenge all incoming email to make sure it isn't spam. This is the challenge. One of their costomers has, apparently, subscribed to debian-user.a Debian list. So debian-user email arrives at that ISP from debian-user, and the ISP sends a cahllenge. This is it. They don't seem to get it through their heads that this is not a good way to eliminate spam. They seem to think that they have to find the actual user who has subscribed to debian-user, and they don't seem to have a clue how to go about it. I'm not sure when or why the messages go the original paster vs the entire list, though. -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
