Well, I had a few minutes to kill tonight, so I did some investigation. Searching through all the various IMail program files, the only one to contain "listserv" and "listsrv" is ImailSec.dll. I went in with a hex editor and changed every instance of "listserv" and "listsrv" to "xyzzserv" and "xyzzsrv". This should force IMail to allow the use of both addresses for those who wish to do so. Anyone caring to give it a try, I put the modified DLL on my server: http://www.nerosoft.com/test/IMailSec.zip At 05:34 PM 01/09/2001, David Gregg wrote: >The 'listserv' to 'imailsrv' not only affects usernames and aliases, but >also host names.
