It *might* be a screwup in GMail. However, I have circumstantial evidence that suggests it may be otherwise. I hate to bother you, but, in the interest of several people who may be affected, could you send the full source of an e-mail you received from the FreeBSD list directly to me, and not to the list? Also, if you have some convincing evidence that it's GMail, are we allowed to know about it? I'd like everyone to note that I'm merely curious; this is the fourth person in 24 hours to say "why in the world am I getting these e-mails?" or "please unsubscribe me", including 2 G-mail users, an AIM.com/AOL user, and one who's at/near Abacus America/Aplus in San Diego. I'm copying postmaster@ as well, although I doubt it's his problem, but maybe a "heads up" would be a Good Thing(tm). My best guess so far is a messed-up forwarding rule or alias/virtuser somewhere (and it's a big, big world), or an malicious or incompetent person with an axe to grind. To those of you who are receiving these messages, perhaps Mr. Johnson's recourse is currently your best option. Also, please note that I am simply an interested individual, and do not represent the FreeBSD Project, G-Mail, AOL/AIM, Abacus/A+, the Teamsters/AFL/CIO, CIA/NSA, KGB, Zdnet, , Yahoo!, Pravda, New York Times, etc., etc. Kevin Kinsey -- If you want to put yourself on the map, publish your own map.
