RE: intercepted e-mail (ME TOO!!)



I'm pretty sure it's a bounce message saying that the email address is no
longer valid.  You send the message to coimbra.ans.net, which re-sends it
to all list members, but with the from: line still referring to the
original sender.  Therefore, bounce messages go to the sender, not the
list administrator.  
Of course I could be off base here, but I'm much more likely to offer
useful computer advise than car advise.  (For the time being anyway, three
years ago I wouldn't have known what headers were, let alone how to read
them.)
