Hi... I own two lists on the listserver at idbsu.idbsu.edu. I have read the owners manual through several times over the last few months and I am still puzzled with a couple of issues. The system postmaster is rather busy, so I hope you do not mind helping me. 1) How do I institute the TOP_BANNER & BOTTOM_BANNER featues? Also the Welcome msg... I am quite puzzled by this... I have tried several things, but to no avail. The server rejects my attempts to put the files on the server. My list headers have the statement of FILES=NO Could this be the cause of my problem? Would changing this allow me to put these files on the system and have them function? 2) Can someone explain the SERVE and SERVE OFF commands and how they properly function? I have been told that as a listowner I have access to using these, but I keep erroring out when I try to use these commands. 3) Is it possible to be served off my server automaticly by sending too many failed commands to the server? I read something about reaching a maximum of 21 failed commands and then the server will serve me off. Does this apply to a struggling list owner? Thanks for you help in advance...
