please e-mail off list [log in to unmask] for me to work with
jiscmail on solving it.

information will be sent to you shortly. Thank you

This kind of thing is normally caused by a certain type of mail
system that a small number of organisations use. There will be a
susbcriber on your list from such an organisation. Basically, when an
email is distributed to the list, and is sent to that subscriber, their
mail system sees that the
To: address is [log in to unmask] and forwards it back to the
list, whereupon Listserv sees that it has already been distributed and
sends that error message back to the original poster. Mail systems
should not look at the To: address, as the correct delivery address is
contained in the mail envelope that exists at transmission time.
There is a workaround for this, ie: a setting that can be applied to
an individual subscriber that tells Listserv to create a separate mail
job for them and place their address in the To: field instead of the
list address. However, I need to know who that subscriber is and the
only way to find out is to look in the mail headers of one of those
error messages sent to the original poster.
I have joined the list and sent a posting, so hopefully I will find
the 'rogue' email

Problem Description : Hi there
Can you please help me I run the accessibuilt list and every time I
send
a message it goes through to the list ok and then I get the following
attached message from jiscmail telling me it has been rejected. Other
people on the list also complain about this happening. Is there a
reason
why a message that has been successfully sent then gets a rejection
notice?
Regards
Marcus

Your message is being returned to you unprocessed because it
appears
to have already been distributed to the ACCESSIBUILT list. That
is,
a message with identical text (but possibly with different mail
headers) has been posted to the list recently, either by you or by
someone else. If you have a good reason to resend this message to the
list (for instance because you have been notified of a hardware
failure
with loss of data), please alter the text of the message in some way
and resend it to the list. Note that altering the "Subject:" line
or
adding blank lines at the top or bottom of the message is not
sufficient; you should instead add a sentence or two at the top
explaining why you are resending the message, so that the other
subscribers understand why they are getting two copies of the same
message.
