I've written to Jim Stone (listed admin) and most recently Colin
Brodsky, the admin person for the list. Haven't heard from Colin
yet (just wrote him).

The AMC list software is a custom package. Last I knew, Colin was
maintaining the list, and the list software. It appears -- and
Colin will hopefully fill me in -- that a software change was made
and either didn't get tested, failed, etc.

Last I heard from Colin also, he's swamped with work. It may be
that he simply can't get to this problem.

There is a solution to this but I'll await hearing back from Colin
before I say anything.

Running a mailing list is a thankless job (mostly) and Colin's
been doing it for a loooong time. While I wish this problem would
get patched up ASAP he has my sympathy and thanks on how much work
he's put in.
