The mail backup today was caused by someone who had vacation setup and
then sent mail to themselves causing an infinite loop.
I'm sorry it took a while to find this but by the time I became aware of
it there were so much list mail backed up, and that combined with e-mail I got
from Jimmie lead me to believe there was something wrong there (like a list
belonging to an account that has been deleted).
Chasing the list problems did not prove fruitful, but I did eventually
chase down the cause.
If anybody knows of a good working vacation program, that unlike Sun's,
is smart enough not to send mail to itself; please let me know where to
obtain same. Thank you!
