Dear Lynne and all -
Apologies for the inconvenience.
Yes, we are aware of the problem, which has consisted of some messages
bypassing the security protocols and moderator framework that is in
place for approval and distribution of messages on SERIALST.  We have
taken active steps to address this, and are continuing to monitor the
situation closely.
Again, we apologize for the inconvenience.
Thanks for your patience and ongoing support.
