Umm.. at the expense of asking what sounds like a dumb question, how do you "guarantee" the physical mailroom? I've worked at 2 different universities, and at both, there's always been a good amount of lossage caused by off-campus students who move and don't tell all the offices on campus. It wasn't *that* bad at Clarkson, since there were only about 3,000 students, but here at Virginia Tech with 25K students it's a zoo. ;) > We know we can't guarantee that the message is read, but we can > guarantee that it gets delivered. You might be able to at least slow them down with "Validate=all". Barring that, you might need to write an exit to do command filtering. <insert pointer to the 'Listserv Administor's Guide' here> -- Valdis Kletnieks Computer Systems Senior Engineer Virginia Tech
