According to the manual you can add comment after an email address in the dist file, however when i try to do this choplist complains about invalid address: choplist: Skipping invalid address entry: "E.H.Beekman@amc.uva.nl Ewald_Beekman" Subject: nogmaals met space i.p.v. tabs Folder: choplist 32 8 64 0 200000 4 dist /usr/lib/sendmail -oem -odb 962 am i doing something wrong?

I'm using an older choplist than you so I don't know exactly what is happening in your case. But unless it has been otherwise changed, putting comments in the dist file breaks the unsubscribe scripts and addresses have to be removed manually from the dist file. --Paul T. -- A little quote from Nader: "More Columbians die each year from American cigarettes than Americans from Columbian cocaine.

By comments it means RFC 822 style comments, which need to be enclosed in parentheses: E.H.Beekman@amc.uva.nl (Ewald_Beekman) -- Aaron Schrab aaron@schrab.com http://www.execpc.com/~aarons/ "If you want to travel around the world and be invited to speak at a lot of different places, just write a Unix operating system." -- Linus Torvalds
