You have most likely forgotten the /F/ flag in the entry of TEST FILELIST
in LISTSERV FILELIST. For more information,
 
"You are  advised to  read the  very good "cookbook"  on the  file server
functions written by Ben Chi <BEC@ALBNYVM1>; it can be obtained via 'TELL
LISTSERV AT ALBNYVM1 GET FSV GUIDE'."
