[games_access] Fwd: Listserv Management Issues

Please note that I only get the moderation notices once a day. I'm 
flipping the list back. I merely wanted to figure out why we were 
getting so many unsubscribe notices in the same day (100+) so I shut 
this list down in the hopes that we could migrate this list to an 
announcements list or create another one for announcements. 
Unfortunately all at the same time, another list we have has been 
hacked into and my sys admins are trying to trace it back. Out of 
nearly 10k lists on our university listserv, it was the only list 
hacked into.

We're trying to create more lists so that people can just subscribe 
to an announcements list and others can choose to be a part of the 
additional discussion lists.

It seems that it's only you and Eelke that are wound up but perhaps 
there's a much more sinister plot going on that I'm failing to see.
