I have recently created 3 new lists for our local listserv. All has gone very well but there is one thing I noticed which puzzles me. I setup the /F/..... line for the new list in LISTSERV FILELIST and listname FILEID file for the specific list. I have the new lists setup for archiving (monthly) with a NOTEBOOK= YES,B5/200,MONTHLY,PRIVATE. After I subscribe to the list and send it a message, I get the LISTSERV FILELIST. It looks fine (ie, it's moved my '.'s into the appropriate columns) but it doesn't register any records or date for that specific filelist. I can do a get for the specific list filelist and it shows 'listname LOG9001' was created with a certain number of records, etc. on a certain date. When and/or does this info get stored into the list's entry in LISTSERV FILELIST? Thanks for the info. Dayna
