Q: |
How can I view the recipients of LISTSERV super-lists? |
Answer by Liam Kelly Senior Consulting Analyst, L-Soft
The LISTSERV super-list/sub-list mechanism is a feature that allows a sender to post a message to a single super-list and have that message distributed to the subscribers of multiple sub-lists without the message being flagged by LISTSERV as probable spam due to excessive cross-posting.
