Indeed.  Note, however, that the "www.lugod.org/mailinglists/" archives
are gathered from "lugod@livepenguin.com"'s subscriptions to the lists,
whereas the mailing-list-managed list archive, done by Pipermail
would I think, ACTUALLY show if a post got ONTO the list.

Or... herm... could be vice-versa.

Anyway, it's both places:

  http://lists.lugod.org/pipermail/vox/2004-March/002558.html


The reason being that "lugod@livepenguin" is subcribed, and can therefore
technically post, even though it's not a real person.  Unfortunately,
it seems the spoofed From let it through.  I'm going to make the
'lugod@' subscriptions read-only (e.g, they can't post)

Well, maybe one day.  But obviously we still get lots of Windows-using
curious people in the meantime. ;^)
