George,
I get your drift but NO its not possible because LISTSERV will send mails to
[log in to unmask] and the address will be automatically removed after a number
of bounces. "Subscribers are automatically deleted from the list when delivery
errors have been reported for a period of 4 days or more, or when 100
delivery errors have been received, whichever occurs first".
The alternative for LISTSERV not sending mails to gsarr@gambia-l and avoiding a
delivery error is NOMAIL and we are back to square one:-)
You can send your messages on this topic to the list managers if you want us to
continue the discussion about technicalities.
Otherwise Thanks!
