X-To: BIONEWS@IRLEARN.UCD.IE To: "(no name)" Sender: BIONEWS%earn.irlearn%uk.ac.earn-relay@uk.ac.dl.dlgm Another thought on the Confirm Event, which is that since all the mail sent is by people who are still struggling with the listserv concept (and many, including your truely, found out by word of mouth and experiment, doubtless to the irritation of others), which is that..... if all the mail messages were also bounced to the sender (my memory is prompting with having to send a /ACK command with the Subscibe in the first place) then perhaps they would get the message that something was wrong and that they had not confirmed (subscribed, unsubscibed etc), rather than being the only person on the net who didn't know! Its just a thought Rob, Sincerely, Jasper Rees Jrees@Vax.Oxford.Ac.UK Seqtest@Wccf.MIT.edu
