Although I have not yet received any information about PIUG-L from anyone
in majordomo support yet this weekend, I did look for some troubleshooting
information and examined some of the old message headers. This following
passage is what I found. I doubt that the majordomo software or anything
else directly related to the PIUG discussion list is causing the problem
but rather it appears that TECC has sent these old messages. I also think
that it has nothing to do with the discussion archive project (Elvin Hoel).
These are my conclusions, so I am opening up the list again.

Go ahead and post to PIUG-l. Please do not post anything related to
the fact that one or more old message has appeared as a post. In fact, if
something strange like this happens again, can people please reply to me
directly at the following address or call:

Bill Murray William.M.Murray@usa.dupont.com (302) 992-2672

Please be considerate of Elvin Hoel and everyone else's time, since
postings relating only to the listserv management and which have no value
for being included in the discussion archive just cause extra work for him,
as well as a lot of unnecessary email for everyone on the list.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation,
Bill.

This was an archived message from the majordomo users listserv. I think
that the person who resonded to Katrina Ritchie below was one of the people
who wrote or helped develop the majordomo software. - Bill M.

Majordomo doesn't keep old messages around or anything like that, so this
is almost certainly a problem with the underlying mail system, not with
Majordomo itself.
