I would like to be able to edit the listname-l mailtpl file for my
list. My list maintainer installed one for me on our LISTSERV/VM system
creating a BOTTOM_BANNER (works fine) but....
The brief section of the Manual quoted below implies that I should be
able to edit this file once it has been created. Thus far, I have been
unable to to do this. When I sent:
> tell listserv get ped-em-l mailtpl
I got this response:
> * File "PED-EM-L MAILTPL" is unknown to LISTSERV.
Am I missing something simple? I'd rather not bother the busy list
maintainer in order to tinker with the MAILTPL file.
Thanks,
