Gil: Unless you have some other controls in-place e.g., SERVICE= to your organization, I personally would be hard-pressed to subscribe to any list that is SEND=PUBLIC. That's like having someone putting a sign on your back that says "Kick Me!" list-owner guides are available on the L-Soft site: http://www.lsoft.com/info/default.asp?item=manuals http://www.lsoft.com/manuals/1.8e/sitemgr/listkeyw.html Yahoogroups are beyond my knowledge. Try to find a support group for operating lists there. I doubt that you'll find it here. /Pete At 07:23 09/18/2003 Thursday, Gil Emery wrote: >Peter- what does this do?
