Gary, The solution for listserv is to use // EOJ Which is cumbersome, in my view, but it works at least on my host. I had written to LSoft about this, and suggested they setup an 'end' command for listserv, but they seem uninterested. Perhaps if a few others suggested it they would do it. I have seen the 'end' command in other places and it seems good to me. Looking for -- is OK but not all sigs have -- in them. And with long signatures nowadays, it would be nice to have and 'end' command.
