This is probably a trivial question, but I have yet to consume my morning caffeine fix, so my little gray cells (as Hercule Poirot would say) are still not functioning up to par... Suppose you are subscribed to a list which has many peers throughout the net (like VM-UTIL, for example). How would you set up the acknowledgement so that you get only ONE message from your NEAREST peer, instead of getting bombarded with message or mail acks., from all the peers from here to Zanzibar !? Thanks, JMC
