     I know this may be a simple question to answer, but I've
been having troubles with it for about a month.  I'm trying to place
a WELCOME file into my filelist that listserv will recognize and automat-
ically send to all new subscribers.  I've tried following the instructions
as follows.    My listname is ADORE-l
 
        Get adore-l filelist (CTL
 
 Then I edit the top line of the message to say:
 
       Put adore-l filelist listserv pw=????????
           adore-l welcome all pw=????? . . . . . Welcome Message
 
 
 I mail this back to listserv.  Listserv sends me a message back and I edit
the top line to say
 
       Put adore-l filelist adore-l pw=???????
 
 
     This was the instructions I followed... The problem now is that I have
my welcome message stored as "ADORE-l FILELIST".  As you can imagine this
is problematic.  I need to delete this file and store my message as
ADORE-l WELCOME
 
 
    I've tried Put adore-l welcome listserv pw=?????
                   adore-l welcome all pw=????? . . . . . Welcome Message
 
 
  However, this command gets rejected.
 
 
  PLEASE can somebody please help?  My list is ready to go if I can get
this filed right and it's been holding me up for a month.
 
                            I would greatly appreciate ANY help
 
                             Thanks,
