Hi,

I'm getting subscription request notices from LISTSERV that have the
user's name filled in with "Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at
http://explorer.msn.com" instead of their first and last name.  For
example:

ADD listname [log in to unmask] Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com

Because LISTSERV does not forward the initial subscription request e-mail
to list owners, especially not with full headers (hint: feature request),
I cannot check to see if the original subscription request e-mail has the
user's name field set correctly or incorrectly.

Is this a LISTSERV bug or a Hotmail bug?  If it is not a LISTSERV bug,
what can I suggest to Hotmail users or their postmaster to correct this
problem?

Thank you,
--
