I'm still having problems getting Auto-Delete to work for me. Here's where I'm at right now: Originally I had my keyword set as * Auto-Delete= Yes,Full-Auto,Delay(0),Max(1) but was not receiving the daily monitoring reports. Several of you advised me that with Delay(0) there would be no monitoring, and therefore no reports, so I changed it to * Auto-Delete= Yes,Full-Auto,Delay(1),Max(1) and began receiving reports (Yeah!). However, my first report said 1 02/26 02/26 Leslie Bernstein <[log in to unmask]> Last error: Mailer CSU-E.CSUOHIO.EDU said: "550 <[log in to unmask]>... User unknown" Subscribers will be automatically deleted from the list when delivery errors have been reported for a period of 1 day or more, or when 1 delivery error have been received, whichever occurs first. Monitoring will cease after 2 days without any reported error. I didn't receive any reports on subsequent days (this list posts infrequently), and assumed that this subscriber had been deleted. However, today I queried the list and found > q cyberspace-law for [log in to unmask] Subscription options for Leslie Bernstein <[log in to unmask]>, list CYBERSPACE-LAW: MAIL You are sent individual postings as they are received SHORTHDR Short mail headers with only "human friendly" fields (formerly "SHORTBSMTP") REPRO You receive a copy of your own postings ACK Short e-mail acknowledgement of successfully processed postings Subscription date: 26 Feb 1997 Does this mean that the subscription was not deleted, or that the subscription was deleted and the subscriber notified, and that they then resubscribed? I'm leaning toward the latter, but I just need to be clear on this ...
