Suggestion:
 
  When ordering a listserv package, and in the case I am experiencing,
a series of packages at once can LISTSERV simply recognize that when
the user has requested to much data for a day that it halt the retrieval
of that package and go on to the next command? So, if a user asks for
10 packages each having 200 files and the first package puts them
over the limit, then they will get 9 messages saying they have exceeded
the limit instead of 9*200 -- this will greatly reduce the resource
usage of listserv as well.
