[net.news] UNABLE TO DELIVER MAIL messages

laura@utcsstat.UUCP (08/08/83)

I sent a message to net.unix-wizards. I am getting it back multiple times
with ARPA addresses appended and the complaint "Unable to deliver mail to:"
<whoever is on the address>. What am I supposed to do with them? Throw them
away? resend them to their ARPA address? mail them to a friend at sri-unix
and say its your problem, pal?

I've gotten messages back from unix-wizards as well.  I presume that
these are caused by flaky Arpanet/CSnet mailers, or by logins being
removed from machines before they are deleted from the mailing list.
Unfortunately I don't know who handles unix-wizards on the arpanet
side (sri-unix is just the gateway to USENET), and as for resending
mail to Arpanet addresses, the probability of success is practically
nil.
