Eric's advice is correct, as always, but this might be a good
place to add: Unless LISTSERV has changed, you must NOT reuse
topic positions. The topic parameters are (in my understanding)
positional, and the topic in position 1 will always mean the same
group of people no matter what word is associated with it. I can
think of ways to make this (reusing of topic positions) workable
by resetting everybody with set xxxx for *@* periodically, but
you need to consciously work with it. Please correct me if I'm
wrong and expand on my explanation where necessary.
