If your manual says this it is a <very> old manual as there was a typo in the original manual three years ago that was fixed soon after the release. However I do see that 2.12.10 could be construed this way, and I will fix that in a later manual release. What is meant is that the <counter> resets at midnight but any pre-midnight HOLD because of going over the threshold is not cleared--this must be done manually because for all LISTSERV knows the threshold was reached because mail was looping and you don't want to start a loop going again by just arbitrarily FREEing the list.
