Hence, your list is >confidentially known only within the specified service area. Is this right in the general case? What if the list is part of a peered list, where some peer might serve only a region of the network, even if it means forcing a subscription to a LISTSERV farther from someone? Isn't that possible? I agree that the Service variable is probably the key to the original question; I just am not sure if Juan is over-generalizing. Nick * [log in to unmask] * [log in to unmask]
