And my experience with the mailing list gateway for
comp.software.testing is that once every 4-6 months, someone's mail
on the mailing list starts bouncing errors back to the From: address
rather than the envelope address. So every time you post to the
newsgroup, you get email stating that your message couldn't be
delivered. <Urk!>
