[pct-l] Weird list goings on

[Tortoise]

Welcome back.

Pending the real story from the list administrators, let me take a 
semi-informed guess:

at least part, maybe all, the list serve software crashed and 
lost/corrupted some files. so the subscriber list was restored from an old 
backup which means that recent changes were lost.

Anyway I'm glad the list is back up.
