I'd like to stress that the LISTEARN 1.5o that we are distributing
is compatible with the LISTSERV code, as far as 'talking to each other'
goes. In fact, LISTEARN 1.5o is very similar to LISTSERV 1.5o with
a few minor exceptions. These are:
 
 * Included 'failed mail' as a possible mailer rejection subject to
   prevent mailing loops.
 * The forwarded REVIEW command now fails if the list is locked. This
   was placed after having a loop with a badly-peered list. So, if the
   list is locked, the looping should stop.
 * Provision for forcing LISTEARN to answer some certain node's users
   in MAIL mode. Placed for nodes whose nodeID "look like" EARN/BITNET
   addresses. (Happens with local TCP/IP nodes, I was told)
 * Ability to order files from LISTSERV using the 'fn.ft' format, instead
   of 'fn ft' - useful for people on VAX, Unix, etc..
 
For the optional packages:
 * Forwarding: help menu if the command syntax is faulty.
