My personal opinion is that any list over 100-250 non-local subscribers is big enough for this. :) >My understanding is that it will send out a RENEWAL notice...

That's what Delay(n) is for. n is in days, so if Delay(7), then they have a week to respond. This differs from the 48h on command confirmation requests. >Then 1100+ renewal notices and responses could also cause an increase workload >on the listserv wouldn't it... We wouldn't want all the lists doing it on the >same days! <GRIN> Depending on what you're using for outgoing mail, no, you probably wouldn't. > PC> ( this format renews EVERYONE on those dates - the n-monthly format > PC> is relative to date subscribed - i think ) ( you should set any > PC> newsgroup subscriptions to NORENEW first ! ) It's relative to the last time the subscription saw activity, e.g., last post to the list, last update of user options, etc. And yes, anything that looks like a newsgroup, remailer, or redistribution list should be QUIET SET NORENEW.
