Quoting craigs@gmx.net (craigs@gmx.net):
Hello again Rick,
I apologize for wasting your time. I normally send a full copy of the email in question when following up on *fraudulent* emails - but for some reason I had my blinders on in this situation. I don't expect you to follow up on this, but I'm sending it just in case you're curious. Forgive me if once again it is lacking important information.
Not a problem. I don't have an explanation for your mystery, but (1) have double-checked the Mialman adiministrative interface's membership roster for balug-talk@balug.org, under "c", and craigs@gmx.net is definitely not among the subscribers.
(2) In your example e-mail, I notice something utterly bizarre: It's coming to your MTA from colo1.sifry.com. That's odd because BALUG hasn't had its machines on David Sifry's machines in years, and currently has the entire domain virtual-hosted at Dreamhost.
Is it possible that there is still a Mailman instance at Sifry's machine that thinks it's managing BALUG mailing lists? If so, that would account for your not getting satisfaction when you contact the -real- BALUG Mailman instance.
You might want to write to the postmaster at colo1.sifry.com, who is almost certainly David Sifry.
Since the balug-admin@lists.balug.org mailing list readers will probably also be interested in this, I'm CCing them, and by your leave will send them a forward of your recent mail.
