the server is hallucinating

[Mark A Mandel]

Not only is the server re-sending old messages, it thinks it's
re-receiving them. I've just gotten two messages from it beginning so:

        >>>

Subject: Rejected posting to ADS-L at LISTSERV.LINGUISTLIST.ORG

Your message is being returned to you unprocessed because it appears to
have already been distributed to the ADS-L list.

        <<<

I sent the original messages on 3/5 and 3/7. Under "full headers" view,
here is the piece of the transmission sequence for the 3/5 one that
shows the gap. The linewrapping is changed here from the original, and
I've inserted a blank line to keep the "paragraphs" from being joined.

        >>>

Can the listadmin figure out where the delusion lies?
