Between @ias.unu.edu and @segate.sunet.se, I am co-listowner of about 50
mailing lists. So to facilitate my work as I need to change my
listowner/editor name whenever I have an extended travel ( twice a year) or
when a co-listowner is on mission (I then take over listowner/editor
responsibility), I have all the headers in one folder in Microsoft Exchange
and then forward all of them with their changes in half an hour. This works
perfect with Windows 95.

In NT, I have to cut and paste and this would take more time to do the job.

Thanks Ben Parker for reposting  Russ <[log in to unmask]>  message. I
have given his instructions to our IT person here.

Pete Weiss at Penn State: thanks for your addendum and I will replace my
REVIEW files with the GET files in case there are any hidden keyworks.
