Mike:
Do you know if this causes endless loops of blank messages to the owner of
the lists?? I have been going through living hell for the last week with
blank messages and it seems to stem from vacation messages based on the date
and time stamp
I'm a true newbie to majordomo and the person who set up majordomo moved to
TX thus I'm at a complete loss as to where or how to look and my job is just
about on the line.
1.94.1 with majorcool, perl 5.0.xx? sun solaris
ANY help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Joanna von Ahrens
