LISTSERV wants you to forward the message using the 'Resent-' mechanism, which the Internet un*x people designed and documented for the purpose of then not using it when they wrote mail programs. The original header is kept as is, and the user interface adds a set of 'Resent-' tags for the new message. You can't get VMSmail to do that because it knows nothing about RFC822. Maybe ELM has some switch that will make it do that. Eric
