Lizette and Walt have made the necessary points. It is clear that the IBM-MAIN message-footer text needs amendment, and this is easy to accomplish. Still, . . . If this confusion had arisen on the LSERV-managed Italian-language EGITTOLOGIA list to which I subscribe, I should have been more forgiving; egyptologists, mostly Italian-speaking ones, cannot reasonably be expected to know muich about command-language processing software; but we presumably are computer professionals. INFO, SUBSCRIBE, etc. are [English-language] LSERV command keywords, usable wherever LSERV software is in use; and anyone, of us a least, who uses a list like this one should be familiar with the rudiments of how it is managed.
