Yes, I'm new.

Can you demonstrate how this might look?  Thanks!

Nan,

Either you just joined or you've been letting your majordomo-users
mail pile up.  We just had this exact same question a couple days
ago, with the solution being the email I sent out then:

You need to look into the majordomo.cf file for

$global_taboo_headers = <<'END';

and a list of subject headers to look for to bounce email.  Find the
string that your offender is using and set up a filter based on that
string and you should be all set.  If you see a new one, just pop it
in there and it will take effect.

Matt
