We shouldn't have got this message in our list but we did and it has been
bouncing around for 24 hours now.

This problem would be solved if those people who joined the "mirror" list
simply subscribed to the "real" list.
Sigh.
To do that, just click this link and send off the email unmodified:

mailto:IB-Architect-subscribe@...

In case the rest of you are totally mystified, Rob Schieck has mirrored
this and the other IB discussion lists on his mail server, in order to
provide a newsgroup-style archive. I didn't know about this, otherwise I
would have announced it. Unfortunately, the software provides an input
screen to join this "phantom" mail list, too, and several people did
so. Their messages bounce back and forth, by a circuitous route.

Rob informs me that he's put a filter on his list to block these
"resubscribe" responses. So far, the filter doesn't seem to be
working...or maybe it is working and these are just celestial echoes.
