I tried it for two users:
 
> query imsprg-l for x031db@tamvm1
Distribution options for Ims Dba <X031DB@TAMVM1>,
 list IMSPRG-L: Ack= No, Mail= Yes, Files= Yes,
 Repro= No, Header= Short, Conceal= No
 
> query imsprg-l for [log in to unmask]
Distribution options for Keith A. Marrocco <[log in to unmask]>,
 list IMSPRG-L: Ack= No, Mail= Yes, Files= Yes,
 Repro= No, Header= Short(BSMTP), Conceal= No
 
I'll try taking the topics out of the lists I have set up for them.
