Why bother unless this is a licensing issue?
The neatness freak in me remains suppressed whenever I consider cleaning
out my lists. If it costs me time and annoys my subscribers, it had
better have a great payback ... and, IMHO, this one does not!
In addition, NOMAIL is one of those subscription flags whose meaning is
overloaded is you use it for anything except a subscriber wanting a
subscription and no distributions.
Given the wide variety of reasons a subscriber might set an address to
NOMAIL, I see no good way to separate the wheat from the chaff! So I
remain very happy using passive probing and ignoring my NOMAIL
subscriptions.
cheers, wayne
