Is it possible for a user to limit the lines per item being "PRINT"ed
by a DB search?  In doing some searching, I keep hitting a FAQ or other
long message which quickly brings the total output up the the LISTSERV
limit.  I'd like to be able to retrieve only the first 20 or so lines
of each item found and then use this to decide which items I want the
full text on.  The INDEX command doesn't really help since the subject
lines are not specific enough.
 
Thanks in advance.
