Further:
 
   Sometime ago, a change was made  to make FULL headers the default and
it has  caused me numerous problems  (the hop count problem  seems to be
one of them).  I  am now ready to undo this for my  lists - and indeed I
have  made  SHORT  the  default,  but I  think  that  only  affects  new
subscriptions (i.e.  after I put short in the list header).
 
   Is there someway I can now undo  the damage without having to go down
the list  and change each  one one at  a time?  I  would prefer to  do a
SHORT for all subscriptions  and then do a FULL for  those that need it,
such as  local re-distribution ids.   (Maybe SET listname SHORT  for *@*
would work?)
 
   Of course, it would have been much simpler to leave things alone, but
I  am probably  going to  be told  that  I am  the only  one with  these
problems :-).
 
   Oh, and please, I know that a hop-count of 17 is stupid and should be
changed, but I don't  have the power to do this to  tens of thousands of
systems around the world, so that's not an option for me :-).  Thanks.

   P.S.: the "hop-count" problem is not  the only problem I have because
of the change to FULL.
