Josh,

An upstream LDM-6 can be told to *not* transmit products that match a regular 
expression. notifyme(1) uses version 5 of the LDM protocol, which ignores this 
feature. Consequently, the set of data-products that a notifyme(1) can see can 
be greater than what can actually be received.

It could be that your upstream LDM is using this feature to filter the data 
that you can receive.
