} 1. I GET my list header, add the name of the list to Notebook path (and no

} responds with error message:
} * Public Notebook=
} Yes,/homed/listserv/home/lstownr-archive/lstownr-l,Monthly,Public
The above is the problem. Eudora has folded the line. Listserv sees
the "Yes, . . . . ." as user data, and since the "Owner =" is in the
user data, its missing. Turn off line wrap. It needs to be:
} * Public Notebook= Yes,/homed/listserv/home/lstownr-archive/lstownr-l,Monthly,Public
Another option is to use a continued line. Here is a bit from the
listowner manual:
4.1.3. Continuation card syntax
-------------------------------
The basic syntax of a continuation card is
//<space><beginning of command><space><comma>
<continuation of command><space><comma>
<continuation of command>....
for example,
// QUIET ADD MYLIST [log in to unmask] ,
His Name PW=mypassword
or, for instance, for a large GETPOST job,
// GETPOST MYLIST 10769-10770 10772 11079 11086 11095 11099-11100 11104 ,
11111 11115 11118 11121 11124 11131 11144 11147 11153 11158 11166 11168
Without going into a lot of detail, the "//<space>" at the beginning of
the command causes LISTSERV to look for a comma at the end of the first
line and, if if finds the comma, to add anything following the comma on
the second line to the end of the first line. Be sure to put a space
before the comma at the end of the first line, as LISTSERV will not add
the space for you.
For more information, see the chapter on LISTSERV's Command Jobs Language
Interface (CJLI) in the Developer's Guide to LISTSERV.
