Problems with the list

Well, it looks like the system admins at a machine in England (the
actual culprits will remain un-named) have a badly configured
sendmail on one of their machines and it is looping mailer
daemons back to the xmca-maintainer (this account). This has
created a tremendous backlog of mail - over 4000 (yes, 4k) messaages
in the past 24 hours.
This amount of mail is wreaking havoc with weber and with the xmca
list. We're working on things, but it may take a while. I'm
supposed to be on vacation starting this afternoon, which means that
things might take a bit longer than usual to get fixed.
Sorry for the invconvenience. (and enjoy your long weekend :-)
