Here's an explanation of the "quota exceeded" thing
that some people are complaining about, for those of
you who just don't get it or are otherwise confused:
The thing here is that he has subscribed to IDM-l, and
then left his email for days without reading it.
Therefore, his quota has filled up with our usual
blathering.
The side effect of this all is that every time you
write a message to the list, the message gets mailed
to everyone, including him. Since his mailbox is
full, his copy of your post isn't received, and you
get a message about it from his email system.
This only appears to people when you post to the list,
which is why you don't know what we're complaining
about if you don't post to the list. Also, for those
of you just discovering it, don't worry - your
messages are indeed getting through to the list. Just
not this one guy.
