Hi,
We recently had a report of an issue with a list with a number of sub- lists included as data sources.
One of the sub-lists was removed as a data source however the subscribers pulled in via this data source are still there with the removed list still listed in the 'sources' column.
Is this expected behaviour and if so, is it documented? We've also tried a 'synchronize members with data sources' but they still remain.
that's not what I see in our installation. The addresses from the deleted source are removed on the next run of the synchronisation (and immediately when using the synchronise-button).
Regards,
Jens Holzkämper
