It's a problem with LISTSERV which I would like to understand. Now, if the list options were set in a less silly way, ie if I could send a database job to compare the contents of the notebooks of the various peers without having to signup to all of them, which I can't do in any case, maybe I could make some progress on the problem. In some future release LISTSERV will have to complain daily to the list owner about inconsistent options. Eric
