Just recently there have been several messages that LISTSERV, the software that runs SCREEN-L, has not let through because the sender has replied to a message and quoted lines from the header. That is, if LISTSERV, see a line that begins with "Sender:" "From" or "Reply-To:" in the body of the message it assumes that it is an error message and it bounces it to me, the SCREEN-L coordinator instead of sending it through to SCREEN-L. (I get a notice like the one below.) To avoid this: when quoting, delete any such lines from your message. Besides, it's good net-etiquette to delete all but pertinent lines when you quote. A long quoted passage followed by a short message decreases the likelihood that your message will be read. ----------------------------Original message---------------------------- The enclosed mail file, found in the SCREEN-L reader and shown under the spoolid 8794 in the console log, has been identified as a possible delivery error notice for the following reason: "Sender:", "From:" or "Reply-To:" field pointing to the list has been found in mail body. ---------- Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare to eat a peach? I shall wear white flannel trousers, and walk upon the beach. I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each. I do not think that they will sing to me. --T. S.
