About 30% of the commands sent by users to our LISTSERV are failing because
they are misidentifed as empty. Users are getting back this message:

* Your message is being returned to you unprocessed because no command was
* found in the message body. LISTSERV  expects commands in the body of the
* message, rather than in the message  subject, because some users have no
* control over the contents of the "Subject:" field on outgoing messages.

1.8e cannot catch one-line commands in MIME encoded messages like earlier
versions could.

I really need to change this message so that users will know to resend
their message with a <CR> at the end of the command -- but it looks like it
is hard-coded into lsv/lsv.o.

Is anyone else seeing this?
