You have just convinced me to change my practice from setting NOMAIL to
sending the DEL command.  I hadn't thought about it this way.  I'm going
to send messages to my lists right now telling them about the change.
I'm also probably going to send the delete command from the account that's
listed in my dog's name so that he'll be the one blamed for such a seemingly
high-handed (high-pawed?) approach. :-)
