Seems to me as though the obvious way to decide when it's time to VERP another outgoing message is, "Has it been ~1 day since the last VERP message", rather than, "Has it been N messages since the last VERP message?" This is based on the fact that, by default, only one bounce per day counts. Ie. if a list's bounce-removal parameters have not been tweaked, then there's no difference between detecting 1 bounce or 10 bounces in a given day, but detecting 5 bounces in 5 days is highly useful information.
Surely I'm not the only one who has thought of this -- was this wrangled over months and months ago, or what? Greg -- Greg Ward <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.gerg.ca/ "Question authority!" "Oh yeah?
