A new colleague recently had great difficulty subscribing to IBM-MAIN. The problem turned out to be on our side but not specific to IBM-MAIN. Some time ago a filter was put in place to reject email whose Envelope Sender was blank. This was supposedly to ward off unsolicited, unwanted list server traffic. (Say what?)
Meanwhile I was having no problem because I had subscribed (long) before this filter was put in place. The response to 'Info' was OK because it had a nonblank Sender. I believe the postings themselves are OK because they also have a Sender. Only the response to Subscribe came back blank. Our email guru allowed the Subscribe response to come through. Now all is well. . . .

If your networking people cannot locate the problem, try sending a note to the list-owner for RACF-L, lsvma...@uga.edu Perhaps their logs will show the issue and then you can work on fixing it. -- Walt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
