Mark, Thanks for spotting that. I don't know why the aliases were formatted that way. It looks like the pipe was being escaped or something. I hadn't thought that it was an alias problem because most everything seemed to be working, including sending subscription requests to the listname-request address. That's another question - what is the difference between subscribing by sending a blank message or a 'subscribe' command to listname-join and sendilng a 'subscribe' command to listname-request? It appears that they do the same thing. I guess that's why we call them aliases. :>)
