If you send a "Hold listname" command it should return information on whether or not the list is currently being held. -----Original Message----- From: Williams, Patrick [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2001 10:49 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Is there a way to find out if your list is in "hold" status? My list is automatically held whenever volume reaches a certain high level. I've learned that it's easy to free by issuing the "free listname" command. But if I suspect it's on hold and want to find out, how can I do that without sending a test message, which I'd rather not do? Thanks, Pat ---------- Patrick S.
