> How do you Delete a list form the list server. [. . .]
Section 7.11 of the Site Manager's Manual states:
| 7.11. Deleting a list
| =====================
|
| For security reasons, LISTSERV does not have an explicit command for
| deleting lists. The LISTSERV administrator simply deletes the list file
| from the system command prompt with the appropriate file system command
| (CMS ERASE for VM, DEL for VMS, ERASE for Windows, rm for Unix). A
| suggested procedure for deleting an established list (one with archives
| and so forth) follows:
|
| 1. Back up any files you wish to keep, such as notebook archives
|
| 2. For a digested list, you may want to send a QUIET SET listname
| NODIGEST FOR *@* command. This will cause LISTSERV to send out its
| accumulated digest to those who were set to DIGEST mode. If the list
| hasn't been active or if it's not digestified, you don't need to take
| this step.
|
| 3. Delete the listname.LIST file with the appropriate file system
| command.
