The university would like to start an electronic listserve-based version
of their weekly newsletter.  Subscriber numbers could conceivably go
beyond the recommended 5,000 subscriber number limit, so I thought that
setting up sub lists would be a good way to go...having listserve
automatically create sub lists for the super list when it receives a
subscribe command from subscriber number 5001, 5002, and so-on.

If it's not a good way to go (or even a possibility) any other suggestions
would be fine with me!

I believe that is the first-time that I've heard that requirement on this
list.

What is the benefit of breaking down into sub-lists based simply on
subscriber  counts?
