Thanks to Peter Weiss for the reminder to send to our list members about summer vacations. I have another problem along the same lines that I'm sure other list-owners have had too: _I'm_ going on vacation for 3 weeks, and the most logical person to take over while I'm gone will be unavailable too during most of that time :-(. So I could try to recruit another temporary and trusted owner for that time period, make up suitable instuctions, etc. (and I may try and do so anyway). However, I have two questions related to the possibility of leaving the list "unattended" instead: 1. Is setting "Errors-To= None" during that time a reasonable way to handle this? What happens to all those error messages (I would estimate 2000+ messages during the 3 weeks, allowing for the accumulation effect of problem addresses not being deleted)? Is there any reason _not_ to do this? What I absolutely do not want to have happen is anything ending up at the postmaster's address, especially large volumes of error messages. That will wear out our welcome _really_ quickly. 2. Are there any other adverse effects of leaving a list unattended for this period of time? Thanks. Shahrukh Merchant
