Jacob, What do you mean by 'after a certain amount of time'... In my new list [log in to unmask] I have several 'test' postings that I want to remove. When I do an INDEX APUG-L I only get one item back, the rest do not show. However, I pull by date, for example everything posted since March 2001, then I see them. But I want them out. Thanks, Raul. -----Original Message----- From: Jacob Haller [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Wednesday, March 07, 2001 9:37 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Delete individual postings >1.
