How did you request subscription? If you requested via the web, the autoresponder doesn't apply. Also, you will get at most 1 autoresponse from -request within autoresponse_graceperiod, so if you got one to this address while testing, you won't get another until the original graceperiod expires or you set autoresponse_graceperiod to 0. In short, you can set autorespond_requests to respond once per graceperiod to the sender of a messsage to the -request (or -subscribe or -join) address (which may or may not be a subscribe request), but you can't set a message to be sent to anyone requesting a subscription. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
