I noticed your deletion-request to LISTSERV.
 
We are willing to get those 'MOVEd' users back ( as you suggest, it will
make things much easier for many of us -including the net- ).
But we need that the other postmasters agree to do so: peer-linking
again, changing the 'Owner' keyword, EXPLODEing/MOVEing, etc.
 
Some of them may be on vacation now, but I reckon that after the
vacation period these mismatchs can be reduced/eliminated.
If I can be of any help now, please tell me so.
Best regards,  Miguel.
