One of the features that I admire with Major-domo is that it can be set up
so that if the bottom banner is included in the message to the list, then the
message will bounce back.  This is used to force people who do not trim-
up replies to trim them and resubmit.  I assume this is done by having a pre-
defined "trigger" line (like "Do not repost this part") I would love to have
that feature with Listserv.  I was wondering if a work-around could be
created by including a header line that Listserv would read and reject?
Something that would generate the "header lines in message" or whatever
that error is.  Perhaps including the forbidden line in the top or bottom
banner?  Which leads me to my question, at what stage in the message
processing are the top and bottom banners placed on the message?  Is it
before or after Listserv scans to see if the message is perhaps a server
command or other forbidden message?
