Hello, I manually deleted some messages out of the archive. I think that is where I made my mistake. I am getting this error when I try to post to the list: Serious error occurred - traceback follows ------------------------------------------ >>> Error X'00000011' opening file E:\LISTSERV\ARCHIVE\PROPOND.LOG0108A <<< -> Severity: Warning -> Facility: Generic error codes -> Abstract: File/major entity not found -> I/O mode: Record write I have tried to reinstate the archive list file (propond.log01081) but I haven't been able to get it to work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Conor Doyle Website / Systems Administrator www.aquascapedesgns.com
