loop with Steve's mail

loop with Steve's mail

[Didier Verna]

There seems to be a loop with Steve's message about autoreplying. I've kept on
receiving it for one hour now. 

	<m2pvev3b4l.fsf@altair.xemacs.org>


Is anybody else experimenting this ? Of course, gnus is smart enough to remove 
duplicates, but still there's this tiny sound ringing each time I receive a
mail... and when I type 'g' in the group buffer, there's nothing new ;-)

  I am as well... I'm also receiving duplicates of Kurt Swanson's email
'Re: Renaming an nnml backend'.  Message-id is: 6fogufvfr1.fsf@bavur.dna.lth.se

Sorry about the loop folks; I've banned the loser at ese-metz.fr until they
make the appropriate promises.

BTW, I should mention that the list owner address is there for a reason; if
the mailing list is looping, doesn't it seem counterproductive to enquire
about it on the mailing list and create more loops?  Especially since I
read my list-owner mailboxes more often than I read the list itself.

Hi

I'm the looser. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Can you re-establish me ? 

When changing  the  mail   server  here,   we   made a  mistake   with
procmail/formail/sendmail reinjecting  some messages into the mailing
list. But as it was done *by hand* only, I guess that  there was no risk
of looping. I may be wrong.

Sorry,

Fabrice
