Message-ID: <32775@bbn.COM> Date: 28 Nov 88 23:23:34 GMT Sender: news@bbn.COM Reply-To: denbeste@BBN.COM (Steven Den Beste) Organization: Bolt Beranek and Newman Inc., Cambridge MA Lines: 14 There is a mailing list at louie.udel.edu which forwards comp.sys.amiga to Bitnet sites. Once before, one of those sites started bouncing all of them back to the mailing list, which sent them out again (and sent them to comp.sys.amiga again) and you see where this is headed. We got one article here which bounced more than 15 times and was still going. All this happened a few months ago. Now it is happening again. Right now comp.sys.amiga is awash in duplicated articles - and the second and subsequent copies are ALL from louie.udel.edu. I don't know who to call at University of Delaware. If someone out there does, could you yank the chain of the guy who is supposed to be managing this mailing list? Better yet, could you yank the mailing list? Twice is too many. This thing is DANGEROUS!
