Thanks... I was unable to find a mail template named ADD1. My company is using Listserv Lite and I saw a note that says LISTSERV Lite does not allow mail templates to be customized on a per-list basis. Only web templates will be available through the template editor. Does this mean if I am using Listserv Lite I cannot shut off the automatic 'You've been Added Message'??? >> Put the word QUIET before the ADD command (e.g. quiet add list-name >> e-mail-address). > >Then they wouldn't get the welcome message either :(( > >You'll have to go to your list's MAILTPL > >find and put .QQ after: > >>>> ADD1 > >if your host is using 1.8d .. the easiest way to do this is via the web >interface.. mail >templates .. look for the one called ADD1 > > ...Cleo [log in to unmask]
