Please tell us (write privately to [log in to unmask] if you don't wish to make
it public) exactly what commands you issue, from what userIDs. on what
lists/sites.  We have received another similar query but so far we can't
reproduce the error.  (An owner unsubbed themself from the list and then tried
to access the list.  This is not an error, because LISTSERV assumes the Owner
should be allowed access to their list, whether subscribed or not.)

This would be valid syntax and is currently permissible.

>* Notebook= Yes,C:\LISTS\MBR,Monthly,Private,(MASTER-LIST)

This is not valid syntax.  Only a single kind of access-class is allowed.
Either Private or (MASTER-LIST) would be possible, but not both.
