No, , it's not you who has the account... there must be a group member

who receives the graduate list posts at that email address. When email hits

THEIR account, THEY have an auto-reply function that sends a message to the

sender of the email. It is not a virus. If YOU send a message addressed to

Graduate-OSSG, it gets distributed to each group member, and when this member

receives the email a message is sent to the sender of the post.. not the list.

Well, I don't have a Kayk@amazon account...I don't even have an

Amazon.com account, and I'm getting these messages. I also get the

digest version, so it's the digest coming to my email account, not

the individual emails, although I actually read the list from the

Yahoo home page. I'm going to try going " no mail, " and keep reading

from the home page, and see if it continues. Again, it happens when

I send an email to the Grad group from my AOL email, but it doesn't

happen when I email right from the home page (which I'm doing now).

I just ran a full Norton virus scan, and it came back clean, so I'm

thinking that it's someone else who has the Grad list in their

address book, and that person is infected. When we send an email to

the group, that person gets it, and it sends it back out from that

person. I don't know, just guessing here.

have your yahoogroup email delivered to, or change your kayk@a...

account so that it does not generate these responses to those who

post group messages?

group lists, it is annoying to receive additional auto-reply emails

that are unrelated to our posts. I would hate to see people put into

a situation where they must block your email address, which would

prevent them in the future from reading any list posts you might make.
