The behavior of this site was recently discussed on this forum and reading that debate might be informative. Below is a database search job which will send you back that thread. The debate ceased abruptly without resolution. I mailed the Demon representative, and he mentioned that he wasn't subscribed to LSTOWN-L, despite the fact that his messages were being posted to this forum. (I personally find this frustrating.) Apparently many opinions expressed were never received by him. Furthermore, he said that Demon is continuing to find a way to accomodate the needs of list owners. I suspect that is just lip service, but it's more than any other Demon administrator had given me in the past. How I've dealt with this situation as a list owner is also mentioned in the thread, and I regret the necessity to impliment such a policy. Good luck. --dwb-- To receive a copy of the thread, mail [log in to unmask] with a body of: // JOB Echo=No Database Search DD=Rules //Rules DD * search - * - IN LSTOWN-L - WHERE (Subject CONTAINS ('being bounced from' OR 'Two interesting')) INDEX PRINT ALL /* David W.
