Unfortunately, you're not the only one. The whole list has received this.

John Kiffmeyer has unsubscribed a week ago. I think the problem
lies with his e-mail server. John's address is bouncing all mail.

I'm not sure. It shouldn't have happened in the first place, since submit-
ting messages to SeeSat-L is supposed to be restricted to just subscribers.
Since he isn't anymore, I don't understand why his messages are allowed.
I need to look at the SmartList software, but it'll have to wait until
tomorrow morning since I'm at home right now.

I will log in again before I go to bed. If any more of these ghost-messages
have appeared, I will temporarily disable SeeSat-L until I can investigate what
happens.
Meanwhile, my apologies to all SeeSat-subscribers.
Cheers?
