Today I received this e-mail. I have included the complete headers for clarity, never mind the 'xxx', I put them in myself for obfuscation. The announcement is for a post made 6 years ago.

jlinkels,

There were indeed posts made to the thread yesterday.

Jeremy,

Can't imagine that, the last message is from 2009-04-22 and the thread is closed. I can't image moderators remove the last posted message when closing a thread.

Besides, this e-mail quotes exactly the post made by Truckstuff in 2006.

I see what happened. Thanks for the heads up.

I got one of these too (and I'm the one who had closed that thread). I made a mental note to ask Jeremy about this weirdness, but my memory sucks and I forgot. It sounds like the issue has been identified, though. Thanks to jeremy for looking into this and jlinkels for reporting.
