Since in my proposal this information is kept in "your" LISTSERV you
could aks it this question. But for the original problem (being away
temporarily, e.g. hollidays, sabbatical etc) there would be an even
more elegant solution: Each LISTSERV could maintain some sort of "lock
list" on which you may be put on your demand. This would prevent the
LISTSERVer from distributing information to you. Being back again, you
would have LISTSERV remove you from this "lock list" and everything
would be as before.
Generally, I think keeping information as locally as possible would
have a lot of merits, we aren't even aware of now.
