  Here is a cute one for which there MUST be precedent and a solution,
but I am baffled by it.  The problem is to delete a user whose address
is longer than the 80-col screen.  Listserv does not take this as a
command, as it runs over more than one line.  I need to delete this
guy but the command:
 
delete slovak-l
[log in to unmask]
pw=xxxxx
 
or
 
delete slovak-l [log in to unmask]
+ NET
pw=xxxxx
 
  cannot be made to fit on one line.  I tried using underscores to
link the password with the previous sentence, but all I have ever got
with any permutation is:
 
------------------------------------
 
Unknown command - "[log in to unmask]
UU.NET". Try HELP.
 
 slovak-l
Missing argument - specify at least 2.
 
       or
 
> [log in to unmask]
Unknown command - "[log in to unmask]
UU.NET". Try HELP.
 
------------------------------
   What is the answer??  I also tried to juggle his name into a
conventional internet address but that is not how he is subscribed and
listserv balked at it.  Is this a problem for other owners?
