LISTSERV AT VM.MARIST DOT EDU has just received the enclosed delivery error as a
result of a probe sent to  your ADSM-LIST AT ADSM DOT ORG account for the ADSM-L
list. If you are reading this message,  it means that your mail system is
successfully  delivering mail  to your  mailbox, while  at the  same time
reporting that an error has  occurred (or, alternatively, the error could
be due to a system problem which has since then been fixed). At any rate,
LISTSERV has no  way to know that you have  actually received the present
message, and is  operating on the assumption that your  e-mail address is
no longer valid. Typically, LISTSERV will send you one or more additional
probe  messages, on  a  daily  basis, to  determine  whether the  failure
persists, and  if so you will  be removed from the  list eventually. Some
lists are configured to remove users on the first failure.

Assuming you have not  been removed from the list yet,  you can stop this
process  by sending  the following  command to  LISTSERV AT VM.MARIST DOT EDU as
soon as possible:

                             CONFIRM ADSM-L

This will tell LISTSERV that your account actually does work and that you
still want to receive mail from the ADSM-L list.

While the CONFIRM command will solve your immediate problem, it is only a
matter  of time  until you  find yourself  in the  same situation  again.
Please take  a look  at the  enclosed error report  and try  to determine
whether it is a genuine error,  or just an informational message. Bear in
mind that this error report was  processed by a computer that cannot tell
"User JAIME24  does not exist" from  "Please note that the  Department of
Microbiology will be  closed from December 19 to January  2" or "Attempts
to deliver your message have been unsuccessful for 300 seconds; will keep
trying for  another 431700 seconds." These  informational messages, while
possibly useful  to a  human reader, should  not be sent  in answer  to a
message coming from a mailing list (it  is very easy for the mail program
to determine  whether a message is  coming from a mailing  list). Genuine
errors should be reported to  your computer/network support staff as soon
as possible so that they can be corrected.

Precedence: list

Well, the select statement returned nothing. Which is correct, because
currently there is nothing in that management class, and if those OS X
filespace didn't get moved to it (backup went by real fast, no volume
rebounds), then a return of zippo is corrent.

Do you think I need to delete the filespace first? And then back it up
again?

I'll keep trying.

Thanks for the help though.
