This  is the  Internet  standard  for reaching  the  list  owners. It  is
definitely NOT desirable to  have users reply to the list  if they have a
question about the procedure to sign off! Your LMail configuration should
have:
 
LISTSERV = 'LISTSERV'
 
(or whatever userid you run LISTSERV in)

A 90-page  list owner's manual  will be  released with version  1.8b. New
manuals will  be released  as the documentation  work progresses.  If you
know people  who could help  speed up  the documentation writing,  and by
that I mean  people who already know  the subject matter and  can work on
their own, as opposed to technical  writers who know how to write manuals
but have no idea what "LISTSERV" is, I would be grateful if you could put
them in touch with us.
