Yes, sorry. I try to keep up with the bounces, but there's been a
lot of new ones recently. I'll see if I can change the reflector to
point to me rather than the sender for bounces; the issue is
that there's a single, central mail reflector facility at the Media
Lab that I don't have good control over. But I'll see what I can
do.
Best,
