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 IBM-MAIN 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, 
then send it again to [email protected] 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.

Doesn't LISTSERV know that things sent to IBM-MAIN are messages; things sent
to LISTSERV are commands?  Naive users experience the opposite effect.
