I should have mention that the LDBASE EXEC is for VM systems only.
Use of the LDBASE command requires access to the module LSVIUCV.
To do a search of a Listserv archive from other systems, use the

To query as an mail command job, the following commands into a file
named thisfile text a :
SENDFILE thisfile text a LISTSERV AT uga
//ListSrch JOB Echo=No,Reply-via=msg
Database Search DD=Rules
//Rules DD *
SEARCH 'confirm' IN listname
PRINT
