REPLY TO 01/26/89 12:25 FROM [log in to unmask] "Revised LISTSERV forum": Eric, The net effect of the switch to DIST2 as the default seems to be that we are now receiving more copies of things than we used to. This hardly seems like a desirable effect. Why can't the end link on the LISTSERV backbone just hand off the full list at each node (or better yet domain) to the local mailer and let it send one copy rather than sending out multiple copies from that point? /June To: [log in to unmask]
