Eric, I recently asked about the possibility of getting Listser to process mail for lists at OHSTVMA prior to processing distribute jobs. Background: At least 3 days last week, LISTSERV@OHSTVMA had a queue during most of prime time. This queue was in addition to mail waiting for lists at OHSTVMA. One piece of mail was for a private list at OHSTVMA, that contained dated information. How about considering an idea a long the lines of threshold counter, in which LISTSERV processes say 10 distribute jobs, then check the rdr's for each of the lists processing maybe 5 list mail, then going back to distribute jobs?
