I have a newsletter list which gets a posting every two weeks. This is my auto-delete line: * Auto-Delete= Yes,Semi-Auto,Delay(21),Max(1) This effectively says that if a particular address bounces two issues in a row of my newsletter, they'll be deleted. I could have gotten the same effect using 14 days, but I decided to make it three weeks to account for really slow systems and the like.
