hi, i have a question regarding the subscription probing (running 14.3). for a lot of days (surely more than 10) listserv sends probes to subscribers of a relatively small list (<20) and receives at least from one subscriber a negativ probe. note that probes are send out each and everyday in a row (and also the negatives are coming within short time back). as far as i understand it, a probe should be send only once every xx days ? list-header doesn't show anything special : Review= Private Subscription= Open,Confirm Send= Private Notify= Yes Reply-to= List,Respect Confidential= Service Validate= No Service= Netherlands X-tags= Yes Stats= Normal Ack= Yes notebook= YES,d:\lsv-archives\xxxxxxx,MONTHLY,PUBLIC Renewal= None Default-Options= Repro,ietf,Noack Errors-To= Owners any ideas ? -ulrich-
