if the messages are bouncing off somebody's mail box, how will that
person receive this message.
it is called a "catch 22 situation". or, is it?
(ambar might be a member of egroups lists. if four messages from egroups
bounce, they immediately send a probe message to the same
address, if it also bounce they suspend. )
