Anyone who can update a header. Typically, the administrattor will define
a keyword file for this and a keyword file for that, and then list owners
are free to include it. The syntax is:
 
*.IK xxxxx
 
LISTSERV  then  imbeds  the  file called  'xxxxx.keywords'  in  its  main
directory.
 
>Does it permit &-variable substitutions of any kind?
 
No, the only thing that could  possibly be appropriate is a variable with
the name of the  list, which is all the information  LISTSERV has at this
point.
