Hi, I am getting the following message now and then unable to initiate communication with LISTSERV (errno=10061, phase=CONNECT, target=127.0.0.1:2306). The server is probably not started. when i looked in web, some one said it is because of archives size. what should be the size ideally for archives. can i reduce it? and one more question. I do not want to send a file as an attachment for one particular list. i want to send it as a link. Is there a way to do it? Please do let me know. Regards, Subramanyeswari
