As a responsible listowner, what can I do to reduce the load that my lists create on the server? My lists run on the VM system at PSUVM. Are there any keywords that I should avoid setting in my lists' headers? Or optimum settings? Are there any utilities that I can use remotely to more closely monitor my lists (other than 'STATS ListName')? -Debbie Douglass ------------------------------------------------------------------------- [log in to unmask] : May your sword always be within Systems Administrator : reach and may your Foe's skill GTE Government Systems, Needham, MA : and luck be less than your own.
