This is all great!

So,

Let's say I build one Super-List containing 3 sub-lists. 

I only want to send an email to 2 of the 3 sub-lists which could contain
duplicate emails in these 2 sub-lists. 

How can I get around that?

Thank you listserv Admins.

Oh my goodness, yes!  We have a bunch of lists for different admin
groups (network admins, OS admins, desktops support people, college and
department level support people, etc., etc. etc.) all over campus.
Then we have a list where all these admins lists  are added as
sublists.  When we have something everyone needs to know about we just
send it to the one list and we know everyone will get it (we won't
forget some group) and everyone just gets one copy (they really like
that! :-).

We also use sublists to add our group (the Enterprise Server
Technologies group) to various other lists so when our staff changes we
only have to change our one list instead of the 30-40 other lists for
groups that we support.

add:

   Sub-Lists= list1,list2,...,listN

to the header of each list you want to add sublists to.

They do.
