Also when the list goes down, it is NOT necessary to sent all of these "just testing" messages to the list - remember that we each get these. What you CAN do is to send a message to listserve@gerry.vanagon.com (no subject) and Query Vanagon in the message space to "Query" your subscription options for the vanagon list (or just HELP). If you do not hear back, then the list is down and when the list comes back up, you get your response to the "query" message and 1,000 "just testing" messages are not generated, and the archives are spared.
