My list of 300-400 subscribers has renewal set for every 6 months. Every Monday, I get a list of those who've been asked to renew as well as those who failed to do so (there's also a setting for how long they have to issue the renewal command -- I allow 14 days). If one of the 'regulars' fails to renew, I send a private note; usually, it's a secondary or expired address that they never got around to deleting (but had set nomail). As I understand it, the renewal time period is based on subscription activity. So if someone sets nomail every weekend (because their system goes down), they'll *never* be asked to renew. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- neal [log in to unmask] 412-624-0097 (office) [log in to unmask] 412-624-7397 (fax) Owner: STATLG-L "Baseball (and Lesser Sports) Discussion List"
