When we switched from 1.7d to 1.7e, lists that used the local= parm no longer had their mail split into individual notes as before. Has anyone else encountered this problem? I looked in the lstsrv-l database but found no references. In the LISTSERV 1.7d routine LSVXMAIL, there is a string localnodes which gets used; in 1.7e the string is assigned but never used. However, the routine is greatly changed, so I can't determine if there is a really a problem or just a logic change. Please reply to me directly, as I'm not on the list. Thanks.
