Could there be any way for the editor to send a bulk file of all messages instead of each one individually. For example if he has received 20 messages to the list, would it not be more convenient to prepare a big file with all messages and then send them? It would be then LISTSERV's responsibility to extract the individual messages. Or am I asking for way too much? BTW, My list is not Edited so I'm just asking out of curiosity. > Eric Spiros
