RE>Rejected posting to*                      6/12/97

This is getting REALLY assinine and I'm getting VERY ticked off now!  Is there a HUMAN person who will put this to bed?  How in the world does the original address to nyhist-l look like a "listserv" command?    Rich in NH

Your  message is  being returned  to you  unprocessed because  it looks  like a
LISTSERV command, rather than material intended for distribution to the members
of the NYHIST-L list. Please note that LISTSERV commands must ALWAYS be sent to
the LISTSERV address; if it was indeed  a command you were attempting to issue,
please  send it  again to  <a href="/cgi-bin/wa?LOGON=A3%3Dind9706%26L%3DNYHIST-L%26E%3Dquoted-printable%26P%3D67952%26B%3D--%26T%3Dtext%252Fplain%3B%2520charset%3DISO-8859-1%3B%2520name%3D%2522Message%2520Body%2522%26N%3DMessage%2520Body" target="_parent" >[log in to unmask]</a> for  execution. Otherwise,
please accept  our apologies  and try  to rewrite the  message with  a slightly
different wording - for instance, change the first word of the message, enclose
it  in quotation  marks, insert  a  line of  dashes  at the  beginning of  your
message, etc.

This morning I've tried 6 times to unsub from this list, using the =
instructions sent in my "welcome message" and also using the listserv =
address.  Each time it tells me of "illegal commands" and entries despite =
that's how my instructions state the procedure.
  Something has changed here over the last few days, because I'm also =
suddenly getting every message as it is sent rather than the digest =
format I've been getting since December 1995.
  Could someone please give me the UNSUB address, message entry, and =
secret decoder key that I need here?    Thank you very much    Rich in NH
