Due to some recent "problems", I turned on the notification attribute in the header so I could see who subscribes and when (and who leaves). This has been working as far as I could see. However, we had a subscriber pop in from HOTMAIL (and cause some big time problems) and I did not receive any notification when they joined the list. I know folks have talked about various issues with HOTMAIL subscribers, but I haven't seen anything addressing this. It seems to me that notifications should come to me no matter what domain a person is subscribing from ..... unless there is a way to circumvent LISTSERV's normal procedures. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Lanny Pierce (MagiCAT) Administrator Cat Chat
