I am beta testing Listserv from L-Soft.  It is not a for Window 3.1 it is
for Windows NT 3.5.
 
I never heard of pcbuucp.  Could you tell me more about it, where I can get
it or if you have heard of a better one.
 
Listserv from L-Soft appears to be good but I am know to Listservers and I
want a fall back plan in case the military command I work for gets cheap and
will not buy the final release of Listserv from L-Soft or if we need to
rededicate our current server to another task.
 
Thanks,

LISTSERV has a version that runs on MS windows 3.1, last time I heard this
version is in its beta test.  Please send e-mail to [log in to unmask] for
more information.

Ted, I never use pcbuucp before, so I don't know how to get around the
problem you are having.  However, one of the list owners wants to peer
a list (LISTSERV 1.8a) with the one on @property.com.  I told him it is
not possible because pcbuucp and LISTSERV are not compatible.  I personally
*love* LISTSERV, if the guys at property.com decide to user LISTSERV, I am
sure the owner will be very happy to hear this.
 
P.S. these are my own opinion only and I am just a satisfy customer of
LSOFT.
