Although you didn't indicate the problematic name, I can answer your
question in the affirmative for the e-address <jfager at fagerfamily.com>;
what we are evidently being told in these "mail daemon" returns is that a
supposed b-greek subscriber at that address doesn't exist at that address.
The problem was first called to my attention yesterday; upon checking I
found that there is no b-greek subscriber with the e-address
<jfager at fagerfamily.com>, and consequently I'm wondering whether this is
some spoof address ultimately associated with a spam procedure. I don't
know what the answer is. Perhaps Jonathan may be able to crack this one;
I'll forward this to him.

Is this recent? I'd like to know more about it: publishing details? It
calls to mind a book by Bruno Snell published half a century ago and still
in print, _Die Entdeckung des Geistes_, English version _The Discovery of
the Mind_; chapter 10 is entitled, "The Origin of Scientific Thought" and
concerns the "invention" of the article out of the weak demonstrative
pronoun hO/hH/TO; my recollection is that Snell focused pretty sharply on
the fragments of Heraclitus in that essay.
