Have a look at http://www.lsoft.com/manuals/owner/owner.html#4.9  :

If a user sends more than 50 consecutive invalid commands to LISTSERV, LISTSERV
automatically serves that user off so that further commands from that user will
be ignored. Should a user become served off in this fashion, it is possible for
the list owner or any other user to issue a SERVE net-address command to
restore that user's access.
As with all other LISTSERV commands, the SERVE command is sent to LISTSERV.

Please note that the number of invalid commands allowed before the user is
served off has been increased to 50 in 1.8c from 20 in 1.8b.

While served off, the user will be unable to set personal options and will be
unable to subscribe or unsubscribe to lists on that server. Note that a user
will likely be served off of one particular LISTSERV site but not others, and
also that the user may not even realize that he has been served off (in spite
of the fact that LISTSERV sends notification to the user to that effect). 

Note that the SERVE command will not restore service to users who have been
manually served off by the LISTSERV maintainer.
