Hello. I'm setting up my first couple of "real" lists on LISTSERV, and have run into a situation I hope you can help me with. Actually I think that what I'm looking at just may not work with LISTSERV -- but it could be I'm looking at it the wrong way. What I want is to make a list open to users whose e-mail addresses indicate they work within our library. There are two types of e-mail address a library worker could have: *@Library.UMMED.EDU (like mine), or, more commonly, a Banyan address of *@[log in to unmask] When sent out over the Internet, the Banyan address turns into *[log in to unmask] Here's how I set up the list header (excluding the description lines): * Review= Private Subscription= Open,Confirm * Send= Private Notify= Yes * Reply-to= List,Respect Files= No * Stats= Normal,Public Errors-To= Owners * Default-Options= Ack Daily-Threshold= 12 * Confidential= Service Validate= Yes,Confirm * Service= LIBRARY.UMMED.EDU, *[log in to unmask] * Notebook= Yes, /home/listserv/lib-disc,Monthly,Private * Owner= [log in to unmask] (Norm Aleks) * Digest= Yes,Same,Daily,0,Size(2000) I believe the relevant keyword here is "Service=". Our Banyan addresses don't match the pattern I gave, and I think this is because only the "node" ("host" on the Internet) is matched -- the username is stripped off before matching. Is that right? If so, I think I can't do what I want, because the Banyan gateway buries the library affiliation in the "username." I could put "BANYAN.UMMED.EDU" into the Service= line, but then I'd need to use "Subscription= By_Owner", and I wanted to avoid that. Is there any way to match based on username, as well? Has anyone run into a similar problem? How did you solve it? Or am I just not seeing the obvious? Thanks, Norm -- "Life's like a movie / Write your own ending" -- Kermit
