I have a question: Using Listserv (l-soft) and with the subscriber setting to CONFIRM, which requires that when a prosepctive subscriber sends in a subscribe ListName Their Name command, they get back a mesage asking for a confirmation, by replying with OK in the message body. This, to prevent spoofing. I also understand that CONFIRM can be deselected. Question is: Is it possible to modify the content of the Confirmation Request? If so, how, where? At present, this is what our subscribers get (the same message I got when I sent my subscribe request to this list - I would like to modify this message: Your command: SUBSCRIBE LSTOWN-L Stan V. Smith has been received. You must now reply to this message (as explained below) to complete your subscription. The purpose of this confirmation procedure is to make sure that you have indeed requested to be added to the list. To confirm the execution of your command, simply point your browser to the following URL: http://peach.ease.lsoft.com/scripts/wa.exe?OK=7B224011&L=LSTOWN-L Alternatively, if you have no WWW access, you can reply to the present message and type "ok" (without the quotes) as the text of your message. Just the word "ok" - do not retype the command. This procedure will work with any mail program that fully conforms to the Internet standards for electronic mail. If you receive an error message, try sending a new message to [log in to unmask] (without using the "reply" function - this is very important) and type "ok 7B224011" as the text of your message. Finally, your command will be cancelled automatically if LISTSERV does not receive your confirmation within 48h. After that time, you must start over and resend the command to get a new confirmation code. If you change your mind and decide that you do NOT want to confirm the command, simply discard the present message and let the request expire on its own. ------------------------- Original mail header -------------------------- X-LSVMFlags: 16 Return-Path: <[log in to unmask]> Received: from 152.163.225.98 by WALNUT.EASE.LSOFT.COM (SMTPL release 1.0i) with TCP; Sun, 11 May 2003 02:57:31 -0400 Received: from [log in to unmask] by imo-r02.mx.aol.com (mail_out_v34.22.) id a.1c1.96aed62 (30960) for <[log in to unmask]>; Sun, 11 May 2003 02:57:25 -0400 (EDT) From: [log in to unmask] Message-ID: <[log in to unmask]> Date: Sun, 11 May 2003 02:57:25 EDT Subject: Re: (no subject) To: [log in to unmask] MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: 8.0 for Windows sub 6011 X-LSVline1: subscribe Lstown-l stan v. smith
