Sounds like messages ar hitting the floor (though, as I said, I've never
actually witnessed that IME). Another possibility is that you are set to
"full-auto," and AOL's bounce format isn't recognized by LISTSERV; in
that case, LISTSERV is the one throwing the messages on the floor (in
this case, the bounce messages). I process all my bounces through
SmartBounce, so I'm not up on which bounce formats LISTSERV recognizes.

>WHY do people stick with AOL???

Good and prolific advertising. 98% of the dumbest 5% of the Internet is
on AOL. I fabricated the numbers, but they probably aren't too far off ...
