Has the postmaster@compuserve.com somehow been added as a subscriber to the
list?

Subject: Received email thank you


Dear Internet Correspondent,

Thank you for contacting the CompuServe Postmaster with your question,
concern, or comment. We are sending this automatically generated message to
acknowledge that your mail has been received.  If you have sent multiple
messages, you will only receive one copy of this letter.

Our goal is to process all mail sent to postmaster@compuserve.com within 24
hours of receipt and when possible to personally follow up on mail that we
have received.  During times of high volume, we may not be able to meet this
goal.  Replies on abuse reports may be delayed or omitted, especially if the
junk e-mail in question did not originate at compuserve.com.  Due to the
large number of reports we receive regarding Usenet newsgroup abuse, we can
only respond to a few items.  Lack of a response should NOT be interpreted
as a lack of action taken.

Messages that can best be answered by other CompuServe staff will be
forwarded to the appropriate department.


A NOTE ABOUT JUNK E-MAIL

A great deal of the junk e-mail reported to us is forged, and does not
originate at compuserve.com.  In many cases, you can use the text displayed
at the top of e-mail, the "Received:" or "To:" lines (e-mail header
information), to determine its true origin.  If e-mail headers have not been
tampered with, the last "Received:" header line will usually tell you the
domain -- the company name or the Internet service provider -- from which
the junk e-mail originated.

CompuServe does not support the sending of junk e-mail.  We are working
closely with our legal and security departments to increase our efforts in
combating junk e-mail.  This includes deploying new technological solutions,
and adopting a more aggressive legal posture.


REPORTING INCIDENTS OF INTERNET OR USENET ABUSE

If you are writing to report abuse of the Internet or a Usenet newsgroup,
please send future reports to

  abuse@compuserve.com.

When reporting junk or abusive e-mail, or a Usenet post by a CompuServe
Member, please forward both the full text of the message and all text
displayed at the top of the e-mail (the "Received:" or "To:" lines). This
helps us understand the context of the message as we take action against the
appropriate account.


WHAT IS A COMPUSERVE E-MAIL ADDRESS?

CompuServe addresses can be numeric or alphanumeric.

NUMERIC ADDRESSES

CompuServe numeric addresses are either of the form 7xxxx,xxx or 1xxxxx,xxx
(where each "x" signifies a digit from 0 to 7). There can be 2 to 4 digits
following the comma.

To send mail to such an address from the Internet, change the comma to a
period, and follow it with @compuserve.com

For example:

  74906.1610@compuserve.com or 100906.1610@compuserve.com


ALPHANUMERIC ADDRESSES

CompuServe alphanumeric addresses contain 2-32 characters. Valid characters
are A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and "_" (the underscore character). There must be one
alpha character, but not more than four of the same character consecutively.
To send mail to such an address from the Internet, type the address, and
follow it with @compuserve.com

For example:

  ABC_123@compuserve.com

Please contact CustomerService@compuserve.com if you need additional
formatting information for other types of addresses.


A Note to CompuServe Members

Your CompuServe e-mail address is the same as your Personal E-mail Address
or CompuServe Member ID (including the comma) that you received during
signup. This is the address you give to other CompuServe members so they can
correspond with you.

Your CompuServe Member ID cannot be changed. However, you can request or
change your Personal E-mail Address through the GO REGISTER area online.

If you are giving your address to someone who is not a CompuServe member,
add the following extension to your address:

      @compuserve.com

This extension is referred to as a domain name. Since non-CompuServe mail is
sent via the Internet, this is known as your Internet e-mail address.

The following examples show what a CompuServe e-mail address is on the
Internet.  If a CompuServe Personal E-mail Address was John Doe, the
Internet address would be

 JohnDoe@compuserve.com
      |      |
      |      |______Domain Name
      |
      |______Personal E-mail Address


If a CompuServe Member ID was 70006,101, the Internet address would be

 70006.101@compuserve.com
      |        |
      |        |______Domain Name
      |
      |______CompuServe Member ID

               Note: The comma is replaced with a period
                     in the Internet address format.

The address does not have any spaces. The domain name in some Internet
addresses may be case-sensitive.  To ensure the delivery of e-mail over the
Internet, we recommend that you enter the domain name in lower case letters.

Please contact CustomerService@compuserve.com if you need additional
formatting information for other types of addresses.

root@compuserve.com had been added somehow. i asked brian to remove it,
and remove it he did. cute question is how that address got added, since
cocoon-users uses the double confirmation style of list subscription
request authentication... but not worth my time to investigate.
