Re: Confirm: Re: Whats in hell is the automatic reply to my mail ??



Hey, hey, hey...  What is going here?

I got the strange mesasage from M@ilpush too...

I think that somebody thought it was funny, and subscribed mailpush
to linux-il. Well, this "joke" is not funny, and although I don't
know who to blame, I think that if mailpush will not free us from
this annoying message, we have the full rights to blame (and flame!)
them. So mailpush, if you read this message, remove us immediately,
or you will face a flaming war. Linux-il never start flaming; But
it has the full rights to defend itself and its subscribers.

P.S. Ariel, try to track the details of the new (?) subscription.
Maybe <zinnix@isdn.net.il> is only a subscriber of linux-il, who
decided to join the service of mailpush, and instead of filtering
out the messages which doesn't contain his own address on their "To:"
field, he asked for this annoying service for all the messages,
including broadcast messages such as "To: <linux-il@linux.org.il>".
In this case, you should only remove this subscriber from the mailing
list, and add a note about it to the rules of the mailing list.
