I sent a long set of files a while back, they never came out -
there must be a # lines limit on the list...

Anyway, here's the scoop.  I've got linux and most recent MDomo.
Linux is hooked via PPP to internet.

I think I have everythign right, and test config says it is fine.

When I send a subscribe message to the list, I get the confirmation
request (I've got it set up open+confirm for subscribe) just fine,
BUT!  (and here's the rub) a whole storm of bounced email ensues,
on the order of 200 bounces in less than 2 minutes, which continues
unabated until I either halt linux or rename wrapper so that execution
fails.  Here's a sample of the files in my mail spool dir:
