Yes.
 
The format of the AFD command is:
 
AFD ADD FILENAME FILETYPE LISTNAME pw=personalpassword
 
Assuming you wanted to get copies of all files from a given list
archives, you could say:
 
AFD ADD * * LISTNAME pw=personalpassword
 
If you had a series of help files that were named accordingly, you could say:
 
AFD ADD * HELP* LISTNAME pw=personalpassword
 
AFD will only work (I think) with the VM version of LISTSERV.
 
Cheers
