Re: Problem with Automated E-mails from Department of Education (G5 Notifications) Bob Beattie 09 Sep 2010 15:19 EST

At the last FDP meeting, a representative from the G5 project of the
Department of Education made a presentation and asked that any
problems be reported to her:  Constance Davis
xxxxxx@ed.gov

The problem noted here seems like just the thing she wants to learn
about.

PROBLEM: ALL of the e-mail addresses have the digits "12" appended to
them (xxxxxx@uoregon.edu) when it should be xxxxxx@uoregon.edu). So the
e-mails never get delivered to the appropriate people (they go to the
bit bucket). As this is a "noreply" from address, ED is probably not
aware that these e-mails are mal-addressed. We are starting an
investigation to figure out why they are mal-addressing e-mails, but
in the meantime, this is timely notification that can affect our grants.

I'm notifiying the members of this list so they can follow up with
their own e-mail administrators to find out if similar e-mails have
been received and summarily discarded (check the mail logs).
