- LSTSRV-L is the list that you know, with a bunch of subscribers and a bunch of messages every day. An open forum for discussion on LISTSERV. A number of maintainers simply do not have time to read it, and I can't blame them for that. - LSTSRV-M is a closed list reserved to LISTSERV maintainers (normally 1 person per site - I don't object to >1 per site as long as I'm not asked to add/delete people from it every other day). Only LISTSERV coordinators can mail to it, and we use it only for announcing new features or sending important warnings. It is archived on LISTSERV@CEARN, and these archives are public (ie anybody can read them). LSTSRV-M announcements are to be considered as official temporary additions to the LISTSERV library, until such time as the actual docs get updated (or written if they are not yet available :-) ). In order to make it easier to LDBASE the archives, I stick to the rule that 1 message = 1 subject, even though it may mean sending 3 messages one after the other. Since I assume that these postings are of interest to the LSTSRV-L people, I always cc: LSTSRV-L when I mail to LSTSRV-M. Eric
