Subject: ADMIN: No Apostrophe Marks in Subject Lines

OK, this is one of the weirdest admin messages yet.

A couple of our members have had problems getting messages to go through
to the list. The problem seems to be that since the maintenance downtime,
Smartgroups cannot correctly process mail that has an APOSTROPHE in the
subject line.

Thus, messages with the word Addison's in the subject have been having
trouble. Using Addisons without the apostrophe will get around the
problem.

If you have had any messages not go through that were returned as "failure
notice" in the subject and say something about "writemod: fatal: Error:
Query=INSERT INTO..." then this is likely the cause. If you have received
this error with messages that do not have any apostrophe's in the subject,
please let me know. Also, errors of that sort should go to
support@smartgroups.com

Best wishes,
