I've read over the listserv.tips file and I'm still very confused.
 
I currently run four semi-related mailing lists.  I would like to go
through and reset some of the options in the headers on some of them (one
needs a description change, another needs the daily limit upped, etc).
The postmaster said it was high-time I learned to do it myself (and I
very much agree).
 
The problem:
 
I have no clue, even after reading the tips file, how to go about doing
this.  I think I understand the procedure (get the headers, edit them,
and put them back), but beyond that I'm not sure HOW to do this, mostly
because I do not understand the terms the tips file throws around.
 
Can anyone take a few mintues and explain to me in moron terms I can
understand what exactly I need to do?

Also, and this may be related, how can I change the file that new
subscribers receive when the sign on to the list.  I would like to
replace the standard with a copy of the FAQ for that list.

Thanks so much for your time.
