I did my first NETWIDE delete yesterday.  I'm both the first postmaster
for our LISTSERV and the NAD for Rice.  Yet occasionally, in the list
of responses, I get the following:
 
----------------------------Original message----------------------------
List RSCSMODS is not under automatic control. Your
requests are being forwarded to the list owners.
You must obtain a personal password in order to
use the DELETE command.  Please issue a "PW ADD
desired-password" to [log in to unmask]
List SCRIPT-L is not under automatic control. Your
requests are being forwarded to the list owners.
Global deletion process complete.
-----------------------End of original message------------------------
 
1. Which of the 2 lists (if either) did not actually get the
   deletions done, because of the lack of a personal password?
2. Does this mean I have to establish a personal password at every
   LISTSERV in the world to be able to do a NETWIDE delete?  Why is
   it that only some response sets have this message, and only for
   some lists?
