Conch-lers,
 
Once the conch-l list has received 50 messages in one day it holds the rest
and sends a message to me asking to release the list.  Which I did after I
took advantage of the break to make a few changes to the listserv programs
settings.
 
The newest version of the listserv program has several new features; one is
a way to block long email messages.  I have implemented this feature with a
setting of 250 lines.  This setting should still allow even very verbose
subscribers to post messages, but it should stop images and long sales
lists.  I can adjust the setting if we find it is too few lines - just let
me know if the listserv bounces your messages.
