Greetings,

I have a list with 5 topics and I've set various topics for various
users.  I have been trying to query users by the list topics they are
subscribed to with the command:

        query listname for *@* with topics: test1

Following is the message I received back from LISTERV.  I thought this
command would tell me the topics set for *all* users on my list.
Notice, also, that messages are being sent to
[log in to unmask] -- not my intention at all!!!

Any idea what I am doing wrong here?

Thanks so much for your assistance.

There is no LISTSERV server at *.  The syntax of LISTSERV commands does
not
usually require you to give the name of the site where the list is
located.
You may want to try again with just the name of the list (*).
