I sent Pascal mail about the misdirected mail that had been coming from
fishwrap to this mailing list.
I'm including his response.
Should the name of this maillist be changed? He has a point, though I
don't particularly agree with it.

looked into it.
the "bug" is that the www mailing list took a name of the
daemon... add to that the way athena sets up servers
www@fishwrap.mit.edu is mapped to www@mit.edu
you will get more of these as more plexus servers are set
up on mit machines.
i would strongly recommend that the www mailing list change
names.
errors will continue to happen.
