(No, honestly!) LISTSERV recognizes and attempts to deal with some bounces itself unless autodeletion is turned off. Therefore you wouldn't get bounces from some new users with invalid addresses; instead they'd show up in the daily subscription monitoring report you'd get. Look in the LISTKEYW MEMO file for more information on the * Auto-Delete keyword. -jwgh
