hi margaret

in re your message:
me too!!

it has just occurred to me that the mjff fake messages
appear to be triggered as a reply to someone
who posts a message to the pd list

they don't seem to be going out
to all listmembers as a published posting

therefore the trigger point might be at the listserver
incoming port when it receives a message to be posted

and now i'm wondering if the university of toronto
computer has been hacked...

maybe that's how the archive / database function setting got changed?
yikes, we haven't lost our access to the archives, have we?
barbara patterson?
john cottingham?


janet

ps
the fake mjff message doesn't mention donations;
it is a thank you to people who supposedly have visited their website;
and the hidden message headers refer to this website:
 .
who may or may not be mjff's webspinners
