Send to the listserv:

   Query Listname-L

(Use the actual listname).  You will get back one of 2 possible
responses.

1) It will tell you that you are not subscribed to the list.  So
subscribe.

2) It will send back a list of your options on that list.
  a) If you have NOMAIL, you won't get anything from the list.
  b) If you don't have REPRO, you won't see your own posts.
  c) If you don't have ACK, you won't get an acknowledgement of your own posts.

As far as 300 of 2000, you may have 1700 subscribers who are either on
NOMAIL or DIGEST or INDEX.
