My (newly aquired) list has >1000 subscribers, yet distributes to only 200 people. While many people set nomail and follow the newsgroup we gateway to, I did not think that there were 800 of these people, so I added the line * Renewal= Yearly,Delay(21) to the header of my list last friday. Saturday morning, I received notice that "The following 520 subscribers were requested to confirm their subscription" (followed for the next two hours by about 200 error messages for addresses that were bad). Today, I received notice that "The following 1 subscriber was requested to confirm his subscription." Many people have written me saying that they have not recieved a subscription confirmation request. My question is, "Is this normal, to send confirmation requests to half the list, then 3 days later follow up with one person and not the rest of the list?"
