In most cases, the welcome message will be relatively static, so it should be feasible to put a copy of the welcome message in a separate file that can be retrieved using the GET command. On those rare occasions when the welcome message is updated, the list owner will need to update the appropriate mail template and replace the listname.welcome file. -- Paul Russell Senior Systems Administrator OIT Messaging Services Team University of Notre Dame
