I have another question (was a problem, but I resolved it another way)
about the way the local and service keywords operate. Take a look at
the example below.
----------------------------Original message----------------------------
Hello, I have been having some interesting problems getting through
to the list of late. Apparently I am on list TECHW-L but ListServ will not
let me do anything with it. I can INDEX TECHW-L but I can't REVIEW it or
send mail to it. Here are two error messages I received from LISTSERV while
trying to access the list. (BTW, the first one was in response to something
I sent to LISTSERV@VTVM1, the second was to TECHW-L@VTVM1). I am not having
any problems mailing to you or ..... (that I can tell), it's just something
with LISTSERV.

Status: OR
You are not authorized to mail to list TECHW-L from your
[log in to unmask] account. You might be authorized to post to the list
from another of your accounts or under a slightly different address, but
LISTSERV has no way to associate this other account or address with you and is
thus rejecting your message. Your message is being returned to you unprocessed.
If you have any question regarding authorization to use the TECHW-L list,
please contact one of the list owners, whose names and addresses are listed
below:

Why is LISTSERV sending the "not authorized" message? I don't see it?
I'm sure it has to do with my defintion of "Local" but it seems logical
to me. What should "Local" be defined as?
