Doron: there's not much I can do for you myself, except forwarding your mail to the appropriate people /Eric /../ Hello, I have been told by users in Israel that the IBM7171 LISTSERVers network think that node BARILAN has a peer server for that list, and refuse to signup users to the IBM7171 list. Please note that this is an error. BARILAN is an MVS system and doesn't have any LISTSERV machine of any kind. IBM7171@BARILAN is *not* a peer; rather, it's a local redistribution list. Please make sure that LISTSERVers around know this fact. Thank you Doron
