Do you want to be notified as soon as we discover the list to be held,
or should we wait until we think it's been silent for "long enough"?
I've always thought "the limit is there for a reason and if it
wasn't held for a few hours at least the system wouldn't work and if i
mail John it'll imply that I think it's been down for long enough
already which is not my decision so let's just go surf the web for a
while" but I can tell you as soon as I notice, if you'd find it
helpful.
