Thanks for that. I have not ever seen that message when adding a user without the full name, but this user was added without the full name initially.

} [log in to unmask] is not yet in the signup file. Please specify the full name
} of that person, as in "ADD MYLIST [log in to unmask] Joe H. Smith".

If you QUERY the user, does he show up with or without the name?
Listserv doesn't "like" a signup without a name, but once you sign him
up with a name, that name sticks.
