Six of the most recent eight messages to arrive here were off subject (didn't have to do with the problems of setting up or managing an L-Soft LISTSERV list). There are zillions of lists and topic groups (Info-Nets, for example has been around longer than LISTSERV and is an appropriate place to inquire about country codes). If the list owners' list can't maintain a high signal to noise ratio, then Lord help us, or maybe it would make sense to NOPOST subscribers who aren't actually listed as an owner on some list's header? /s Murphy A.
