The changes was necessary for the domain 'dbp', because there are
two service-provider (DFN and German PTT) behind the same domainname.
DFN now uses the 'd400' domain for their customers. The addresses
'*.dbp.de' are used in the x400 world for the german PTT customers, but
they will have no access to EARN/BITNET or TCP/IP (policy of the PTT).
 
For the next half year both addresses will be go to the users,
but the address from the users, sending mails to EARN/BITNET, will be
'D400.DE' addresses. Therefore the 'CONFIRM' messages are rejected
with [log in to unmask] is unknown to the list'.

I ask a time ago here at that list for a useful possiblity to change the
subcribers on listserv lists. I got now response.
So the EXEC I wrote is only a 'DELETE'&'ADD' mechanism for the 'DBP.DE'
subscriber. If you are interested, please send me a note.
 
For the FUILIST, AFDLIST and SIGNUP2 file I have no EXEC, I think
the only useful thing for this is to change the files per hand.
Or did you have an other sugesstion???
