But that implies that you need to assign a unique level to all groups of each server. By default, there are only 5 level that count as subscribed, so with my 6 servers that doesn't suffice. Additionally, I don't see how that would do the trick if ever changing servers are unreachable, for example I can't check the work server from home and the other way round. Anyway, I think we can stop here. I'm fine with any usage of levels that help people to get their work done. :-) Bye, Tassilo
