Hi,

We have a Virus sweeper program which automatically appends
a message to the bottom of each email message.  The appended
message is as follows:

**********************************************************************
This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and
intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they
are addressed. If you have received this email in error please notify
systems administration at [log in to unmask]

This footnote also confirms that this email message has been scanned for
the presence of commonly detectable virus-types.
**********************************************************************

Now, when I try to CREATE a list by submitting an email message,
I do:

PUT  listname  LIST  PW=XXXXXX
<header goes here>
<subscriber list goes here>
<virus sweeper message winds up here>

Listserv is giving the following error error:


-> **********************************************************************

Header lines must be grouped at the  beginning of the file; they may not be
interspersed with  recipients. Note that you  will get this message  if you
attempt to update a list you had retrieved via the REVIEW command. You must
not do that because the subscribers'  options would be lost in the process,
and concealed subscribers  would be silently removed from  the list. Always
use the GET command when you plan to update the list.

PUT operation rejected, list has not been created.



Is there a way around this.  I'm sure some people have signature
files as well that can be a problem.

Thank you.
