The current havoc being wreaked in the Usenet group "comp.mail.elm" is actually the fault of two sites: dual and uclachem. It appears that they both still have the newsgroup listed as moderated, even though it changed status quite a while ago. As a consequence, all the postings that show up for the group are being MAILED to comp-mail-elm@hplabs which is automatically posting them, the posting of which is then being rejected and mailed to ... well ... it'll go on for a long time like this. At our end we've changed "comp-mail-elm@hplabs" to point to /dev/null to cut our half off, but dual and uclachem both need to clean up their active files to reflect the *UN*moderated status of the group! Please!!! Soon!!! --- Dave Taylor ex-moderator of comp.mail.elm Hewlett-Packard Labs
