I have several lists that we do not wish to keep log files for. However, we do keep them, since you must have a log file in order to have a digest option on your list. But these log files are never referred to at all. The lists are all "Owner Digests". I have 3 such Owner Digest lists now. We can delete the log files by hand, but it would be neat if there were a way to delete them automatically. Does listserv have anything like that? This is similar in a sense to how Pine, for example, will save off your old sent-mail folder at the start of a new month, but ask you about deleting old ones, to try to save disk space. And as the net grows - as everything grows - the size of log files grow. I know that hard disks also 'grow' in size, but we have seen disks fill up; it seems reasonable to delete things that are not needed. Basically, the log file is needed because of digests; so after the last digest is formed for a month that is ending, the log could just be deleted by listserv. That would be ideal. Kevin Kevin J.
