Hello. I am owner of GIS-L, a high-traffic (30 per day) large (about 1000 subscribers) high error rate (300 to 1000 / day) list about Geographic Information Systems. I am resigning as list owner, and have some possibilities for new owner. If the new owner is not found before a trip I am about to make, is it possible for a list owner, or the system person in charge of lists, to 'SUSPEND' a list, preventing both postings and subscriptions, and then re-activate it a couple of weeks later? If so, who can do it, and what are the commands, please. David Mark [log in to unmask] 'Owner', GIS-L
