Thank everyone who kindly replied to my question.

I backtraced the log and found the change I made last Dec.  I removed the change and asked the sender to send it again.  It was only distributed to 424 undergrads (instead of 455).

Were they CC'd/BCC'd on the original message, i.e., before it went through the list?  By default, LISTSERV strips any CC and BCC fields, so you would not be able to tell from the distributed message.

Hello,

 

We have been using Listserv for more than 20 years on Linux (current 17.0).  This is the first time I saw it happen.  The list configuration is:

 

 .HH ON

 

Ack= No

Review= Owners

Subscription= By owner

Send= Editor,Hold

Notify= Yes

Reply-To= Sender,Respect

Validate= No

Notebook= Yes,/u/ssc/listserv/lists,Monthly,Private

Default-Options= Repro,Subjecthdr

Misc-Options= KEEP_EXCHANGE_DATA

 

Owner= (chavez-alias)

Editor= (chavez-alias)

.HH OFF

 

The list has 424 subscribers.  

 

 

However, it sent to 455 according to the log:

 

4 Mar 2022 11:12:43 Distributing mail ("CHAVEZ-UNDERGRADS") from owner-chavez-undergrads@LISTS.SSCNET.UCLA.EDU...
4 Mar 2022 11:12:43 Mail posted via SMTP to [log in to unmask]

......................................................

4 Mar 2022 11:12:43 Mail posted via SMTP to [log in to unmask]

4 Mar 2022 11:12:43 Done - 5 outbound files (455 rcpts).

4 Mar 2022 11:12:43 Message DISTRIBUTEd to 455 recipients.

 

It came to my attention after some faculty complained they were not undergrads.  I checked the log and found about 20 faculties who are not​ on the subscribers but showed in the Listserv log.

 

Any hint will be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you,

 

Shinn
