Unfortunately, here at Temple, cms accounts are managed and listserv functions are handled by two different departments. I handle the listserv postmaster responsibilities. What happened is that about 130 accounts were either put on hold or shut down completely here. Of course, most of these accounts were subscribed to listserv lists. I would like to unsubscribe them all from all listserv lists quickly. I tried using my postmaster account to do TELL LISTSERV FOR acct UNSUB * (NETWIDE and got a message from listserv that the account does not exist. Yes I know it does not exist. How can I get around this, short of reopening 100+ accounts, unsubscribing them, then closing them again? How do other sites handle unsubscribing accounts that are about to be closed? Is there a way of automating this? I know that if I had to add extra work to the account closing process, our accounts manager would complain vehemently to my director that its not his job.
