Attempting to SERVE a user results in the message user has not been served off (or words to that effect). Yet the next attempt by that user to subscribe results in bounced mail saying the user had been served off. SERVE then says not served off. LASTING GLOBALV shows the user in the DISABLED list. So, am I missing something obvious? Thanks in advance for any assistance.
