Mysterious bounces



Some of you who have posted PaleoNet messages recently have noticed that
PaleoNet's listserver software has mysteriously begun sending bounce alerts
to you from an address (cryptically) designated by the string "EMDRNF".
First, be assured there is no cause for alarm. Receipt of such a bounce
alert does not mean that your message is being bounced back from all
PaleoNet addresses. Rather, the problem seems to derive from some
(presently unknown) idiosyncrasy of this address that is resulting in the
bounce alert being sent to the authors of the original message rather than
just to me. If you post a message to PaleoNet and receive a bounce alert
from "EMDRNF" please ignore it. Rob Guralnick and I are trying to track
down an squash this annoying little bug.

Computers! Can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em.
