Recently, we upgraded our mailer software which supports our mail
distribution/discussion lists, as well as FILESERV.  There is a bug in the
daily reset of the mailer subprocess controlling posts directed to a list
or FILESERV which is causing you to receive the lame statement that ``"" is
an unknown list or fileserver'' then returning your post to you.

Yes, we still support our lists.  Yes, we still support FILESERV.  Yes, we
are working on this problem (and hope to have it resolved *very* soon). 
The apparent window of this problem is between 0100 and when I arrive daily
and verify everything is up appropriately (around 0700) in the Central
Daylight Time zone (-05:00 GMT).  My apologies to any and all of you who
have had the displeasure of dealing with a problem local to our site. 
Please re-post your message or re-request your file/package and hopefully
things will work properly.  If you continue to have problems, please post
your message/request to me and I will see to it that it is appropriately
handled.

Regards,   George
