So, lemme get this straight. You changed the list address, but instead of just sending an email to the list addresses telling all users of the list address change, you just decided to, in essence, inform them via an NDR when they send mail to the list? There have got to be at least 1000 list management how-to's on the web, and not a one would recommend you do this in this way, and probably all 1000 would say _never_ manage a list this way...yikes. -- Stan
