My post generated several responses about the 'renewal' option in Listserv. Yes, I understand that option - but I don't want my entire list to undergo that. If I could direct the renewal option to just the NOMAIL subscribers, that would be great! I would do that once a quarter. I could manually delete them and send a personal note to each to resubscribe... but that would be a lot of work. I have some cancer lists, and easy as it might seem to experienced users, having to do the renewal will be too much for some of them; they would just drift off, yet they would rather stay on if it were easy. If they have just been in the hospital and are very sick the last thing they want is to be hassled by the list. Some of them cannot even subscribe; they need help with the commands. Can the renewal be directed to individual users, or subsets of users by using a wildcard? I prefer a solution where I, the list owner, can as easily as possible manage the NOMAILS without bothering the regular subscribers. Kevin (SIGNATURE) Kevin J.
