Hello Everybody, I have two quick quetions for you: 1. Why is it that everytime I send a message to &OWNER (that is listname-request@MYHOST or owner-listname@MYHOST) the message gets routed through a listserv backbone server (vms.dc....)? The aliases listname-request and owner-listname is setup in my system so why does it go to vms.dc... and ends up by telling me that an error has occured... ??? 2. How can I have a command sent to listserv across more than one line? What is the escape character for continuing in another line? Thank you. Best regards, David M
