I would create the new list with the -L name and then GET the old list with e-mail. This gets the headers and subscribers. Then I change the name in the notebook header and put it back with the new name. You will have to do a PUTALL just to be safe. This preserves subscribers and their settings. You can then remove the old list. At 12:21 PM -0400 6/20/03, Stan V.
