Here is the automatic reply I received in response to mail to "postmaster@u-strasbg.fr". I also wrote to "postmaster@slip.net", but have not (yet?) received a reply. [Headers snipped] National.Alliance!Crusader We are aware that offending mails have been sent through one of our hosts ( cdsxb6.u-strasbg.fr), probably using a slip access somewhere in the internet. People responsable for network security at our site are working on this problem. Note that the address "Crusader@isis.u-strasbg.fr" is not a real address. Simply, our mailhost isis appends its own name when mail addresses are incomplete. For any further inquiry you may contact: svp-osiris@u-strasbg.fr ________________________________________________________________________ Centre Reseau Communication E-mail : svp-osiris@crc.u-strasbg.fr Universite Louis Pasteur 7, rue Rene Descartes Tel : 88.41.66.06 67084 STRASBOURG Cedex - France Fax : 88.41.66.28 ________________________________________________________________________
