You prepare a file that looks like this: quiet add xyz-l dd=userlist //userlist dd * user1 user2 ... and mail it to LISTSERV. If you're running 1.8b, add IMPORT after DD=USERLIST. This will speed up the process and relax syntax checks. With the IMPORT option you can import subscribers in just about any format. Eric
