This is a defense against an attack we used to see quite a lot in the
internicene feuding among the Greens. People would include one of our
lists in a large set of recipients pulled carelessly out of their
address book. One of the (often non-Green) recips would flame back (at
Reply-to All) and of course his message would be rejected. But the
original poster would reply to the flame, and that would be posted, and
you'd get a voluminous bad vibes email string. Someone coupled
grns-usa-forum to a Nation magazine discuss list and the noise went on
for a couple of weeks, and at least 20% of the members unsubscribed
from grns-usa-forum.<br>
