The opposite of HOLD (list held) is FREE. No posts are allowed, but will accumulate in the msg queue and will be released when the Owner issues FREE command. ADD/Delete and changing SET options can occur. The opposite of LOCK is UNLOCK. A Locked list occurs upon command GET listname (HEADER No *changes to the list* are allowed (nobody can be added or deleted, nobody can change any SET options) but posts are processed normally. Can be UNLOCKed or simply PUT back the revised Header. -- ________________________________________________________________________ Ben Parker .....(Oak Park IL -> Denver CO) ..... [log in to unmask]
