[/home/listserv/notebooks/sas-l]2 l sas-l.log02*
 758 -rw-r--r--   1 listserv listserv  817743 Jan 07 22:13 sas-l.log0201a
 968 -rw-r--r--   1 listserv listserv 1074786 Jan 14 18:06 sas-l.log0201b

So we're well over 2M for the logs for *this month*, and it's only the 15th
already.  I could see how they'd want people to be able to look at a threaded
webpage overview and look at selected items of interest, but not be able
to say 'GET SAS-L LOG0201'.  In fact, that's why that list has weekly
notebooks - because we got too <bleeep>ing many bounces when people got
a monthly notebook because it was too big.

Or am *I* misunderstanding the original problem too?
