It wouldn't be nice if the Listserv could detect those SUBSCRIBE and UNSUB that new users sends every now and then to a list instead of a listserv? Perhaps when the mail text is only one line long the Listserv may attempt to execute that command informing the user that the following commands must be sent to LISTSERV@address, if it is not a valid command then go on with the distribution. Every semester a new bunch of users goes into BitNet, I'm sure the majority of them want to learn the proper way to use the net. -Alejandro Kurczyn S.
