Since I think you are using a Revised LISTSERV, this advice might work: 1) list-owner changes the TRNSPLNT list headers as follows - topics= faq default-topics= all,-faq 2) list-owner issues the LISTSERV cmds - quiet set trnsplnt topics= all,-faq for *@* quiet set trnsplnt topics= all for netnews@auvm 3) distribute post FAQs with a header of - subject: faq: monthly Frequently Asked Questions the most important being the positional string /faq: / One gotcha: folks who have their distribution options set for DIGEST will receive the FAQ regardless of their topics: values. /Pete (pmw1@psuvm.psu.edu) -- co-owner LDBASE-L, TQM-L, CPARK-L, et -L -- Peter M.
