Sub-lists aren't allowed in LISTSERV Lite. (Section 2.2 of the Site Manager's Manual lists keywords that aren't allowed under LISTSERV Lite, and Sub-lists= is one of them.) The main options I can think of are to create the individual department mailing lists and subscribe them all to the big all-company mailing list (in which case you'd delete all other subscriptions to the big mailing list) or to create the departmental mailing lists and maintain them seperately from the large mailing list. The problem with the former approach is that if someone is on more than one mailing list he or she will get duplicate mail; the problem with the latter approach is that it requires a duplication of effort as users will have to be added, removed, etc. to multiple mailing lists. There's a mailing list devoted specifically to LISTSERV Lite support: [log in to unmask] . You may wish to pose your query there as people may have some experience with situations similar to yours. -- Jacob Haller, Technical Support L-Soft international, Inc http://www.lsoft.com/
