Other than the dates/times, I get a complete list by using a "q listname"
command (the subscribers are listed under the header) or by using a "scan
listname" command (listserv 1.8c) This will give you the address that the
server recognises and their call name. I can take the word processor and have
it insert commas automatically (for a comma deliniated file) or use a space
delineated function, then use it in a word processor database or an actual
database. I've done this with a list that I maintain "personal info" on. When
I do a new query, I merge the new file with the old and it only adds what isn't
there already, indexed on the email address. I have to hand remove people
though. Works good enough that I can streamline it into the word processor or
use a report to gather information I need from the data.
