Actually I think I see the cause of the conflicting messages you received from us. I wasn't the one who started out on your ticket, but I am the person who reviews registration requests. It looks to me like when you sent in your registration, you sent it in for the LEO.SCSL.STATE.SC.US box--which is running VMS--instead of for the NT box that is running LISTSERV. When I telnet to port 25 of LEO.SCSL.STATE.SC.US, MultiNet answers. This is what caused the problem for <me>, and what prompted the message you quoted to LSTSRV-L. If you will contact me (privately if you wish) and tell me the name of the NT box, I will see what I can do to help. Nathan
