ALL means just that ALL of the topics and is a keyword. Perhaps you are confusing the other keyword OTHER, which is what a message that does not have a correctly formatted topic defaults to. So you can eliminate any message without a (previously defined) topic by using this command: SET listname TOPICS: ALL -OTHER and you will only get messages that have a properly formatted topic, all else will be ignored. One more thing, if you are getting digests, you can't pick and choose topics -- listserv builds the same digest for everyone, ignoring any topic settings (there is just too many combinations and that would involve the server compiling too many digests at once since it creates the digest as the messages come into the server) Liz Marr -- mailto:[log in to unmask] KA7MYM http://cc-ent.com/Liz-Home ICQ: 4014832 AIM: SAR TERV =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
