Hi, Currently all the lists that I had created with listserv 1.8d are sending a double subscription message to any new subscriber. The messages each list sends are the following: FIRST MESSAGE: SUBJECT: You are now subscribed to XXX-List BODY OF MESSAGE: Fri, 13 Sep 2002 14:57:16 Your subscription to the YYY-List has been accepted. Welcome to the YYY-L mailing list! As a member of the list, you will receive an e-mail version of YYY-L ....digest, every ....evening. Please save this message for future reference, ... instructions below. 1. To leave the list at any time, send a message to [log in to unmask] with the words SIGNOFF YYY-L in the body of your message. 2. To rejoin the list at any time, send a message to [log in to unmask] with the words SUBSCRIBE XXXX-L <your name, no brackets> in the body of the message. If you have a question to: [log in to unmask] THE SECOND EMAIL IS: SUBJECT: Use guidelines for XXXX-L list And the Body of this message includes all the above message except for: Your subscription to the XXXZZ-List has been accepted. Is there a way to modify this? Since this is annoying for all the new subscribers. I have clear the WELCOME template for each list using the listserv WWW interface but still I keep getting the 2 messages. Thanks for all your help and feedback. Lorena. Lorena.
