Does anyone have an answer to this one? I see the same thing much too
often, and can't understand why a "key word" in a message to a list
(NOT majordomo itself) such as "help" in the middle of a sentence in 
the body of a message should trigger an Admin request to the list
owner.

Thanks for any help on this one.
