Also, the format >of the "put via FILELIST" command is: > >PUTC <filename> <filetype> <filemode> RECFM=F/V LRECL=<nnn> PW=<password> Not exactly. First of all, it's PUT not PUTC; PUTC is just the opposite, i.e, store the file WITHOUT any filelist validation; and the third parameter should be <filelist> (the 'target' filelist), not <filemode> that would be interpreted as 'filelist' and probably cause errors from LISTSERV.
