[comp.ai.digest] Strange Messages

DOC@VTVM1.BITNET (04/19/88)

Why am I getting sub ailist messages?  (This is the second one I've
gotten -- got one and discarded it a couple of days ago.)
I sometimes get people's messages here because they have "DOC" in
a NAMES file as someone's nickname, but it happens to be my userid
so I get these notes intended for someone else.  Is that happening
now?  (I'm a fairly new AILIST subscriber myself, so I don't know
what to expect.)

  [Sometimes people send a "sub AIList" message to the list,
  AIList%LISTSERV, rather than to the BITNET LISTSERV itself.
  The bounce message then gets sent to the readership.  -- KIL]
