Obviously the DIST2 job was appended to itself somewhere - well, you can imagine the n-plication of this request. I didn't pay attention to the fact that this error was accompanied by "a loop has been detected in your Job" messages which get sent to the postmaster of the originating server. Dunno where the user sent the request to. The nearest server is at RICEVM1. The job is never re-sent to the originating server and probably not to all LISTSERVs if the appending doesn't take place before any fanning is done. Christian
