The only problem with this method is that LISTSERV may not have the
disk accessed.  In that case, I suppose you could TELL LISTSERV CMS
ACCESS nnn x .  Then ERASE, as you describe above, and finally nuke
the database pointers which aren't any good any more:
TELL LISTSERV CMS ERASE listname DBNAMES x
TELL LISTSERV CMS ERASE listname DBINDEX x
The next time someone does an LDBASE against the list these files will
automatically be rebuilt.  Or if you want to clean things up right away,
do a
 
LDBASE yournode
SELECT * in listname
QUIT
 
(Me?  I'd log on as LISTSERV, do a SHUTDOWN, and just do the ERASEs.)
