Well, folks, I tracked the cause down, and am about to ask that the sitation be fixed. (CC'ed it to Jory.) Fortunately this was only affecting a few people; If you were one of the few who received these "No such user: {something} @ winnt.mail", I predict that the reason you received such an error message was that you sent a message to the PICList with parentheses () in the subject line, and that the error you received back had all or part of what you typed in that subject line, as the e-mail address that was a non-existent user at winnt.mail - I couldn't get anyone to send full headers my way, but once I tested this scenario, I got full headers myself, so I can write a note to the source of the problem. (In plainer english, if your subject line was "[OT] Weather! (foobar)", you would have received an error back that said "foobar@winnt.mail - no such user here.", in the body, with "No such user!" as a subject line.) Probably just a broken internal mailing Daemon or something, I'll let the person talk with their ISP about fixing it! Mark
