ORBIT probably signed up for the list (or got signed up by a "friend")
under a different address, and it is now being forwarded after a
change of host names.  There's nothing we can do about that; ORBIT is
going to have to solve that problem themselves (or learn to forward
all headers so that we have a shot at doing it; can Netscrap do that?).

A second possibility is that somebody signed up another mailing list
that ORBIT is on.  We can't do anything about that either.

Come now, I saw that message on TLUG first; it IS coming from us.  :-)
