The SENDER: line looks strangely like something other than a normal list distribution. On a VM/CMS LISTSERV (to a remote test address), I have tried DUALHDR distributions. The SENDER: shows the name of the list, not 'LISTSERV' both in the RFC822 and body-of-text (dualhdr). Looking at your archives (not a REAL distribution), I see "good" fields. The list's definition can also override default LISTSERV behaviour via the * SENDER= keyword. Finally I believe there is a global LISTSERV config option (but can't remember) for certain kinds of outputs associated with commands. -- co-owner: INFOSYS, TQM-L, CPARK-L, ERAPPA-L, JANITORS, LDBASE-L, et -L URL:mailto:[log in to unmask] "BEEP if you luv LDBASE"
