Re: choplist doesn't pay attention to $maxnames?

We have a weekly newsletter that is sent to about 700,000 readers. Although we have set the `maxnames' parameter in rc.init to 100, choplist is dividing the list into batches of about 5,000 addresses each. So far, I have been unable to extract the inner truth of choplist from multigram.c. Has anyone else seen this bug, and if so, have you had any success resolving it?

Are you using a version of choplist from before SmartList 3.12? A bug in choplist's counting of addresses was fixed in 3.12, according to the HISTORY file. (I would double check in CVS but I'm having some link problems...) Philip Guenther
