Dear members,
As you will have noticed, one of our members when going on leave had
forgotten to suspend her subscription but had set up an e-mail routine
replying automatically to each incoming message in order to inform senders
that she is on leave. Since our list-mail, too, is distributed
automatically, last night our list and her e-mail routine engaged into an
annoying dialogue, firing and backfiring the same messages to each other
(and to your mailboxes) until the list-owners this morning noticed the
problem and regrettingly but instantly cancelled the subscription which had
caused it to occur (hoping that the member in question will resubscribe
again when she will be back from her leave).
We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused to you, and we use
the opportunity to remind you all please *not* to install any email
routines of this kind to your own mailbox without previously suspending or
cancelling your subscription to this list. If you are going on leave and
don't wish to receive list-mail during your absence, please send a message
with text
suspend mail italian-studies
to:
[log in to unmask]
Once you wish to receive your list-mail again, send a message with text
resume mail italian-studies
to the same address ([log in to unmask]).
Best wishes to you all,
Otfried Lieberknecht & George Ferzoco, list-owners
