Ah, then it's not mail distribution but an attempt at distributing a file
to some  user with  a domain-style  address. LISTSERV  then makes  a mail
envelope  around the  file,  and if  the  user doesn't  exist  it gets  a
nastygram back.  You don't want to  put the user's address  there because
one of the purposes of DISTRIBUTE is *not* to get zillions of 'Sent file'
messages; I'm not sure the users would like to trade them for '*Mail sent
to' messages :-)
