(Continued from previous message)

        into the message to be sent, and wcGATE would interpret this as
        an overide to the TO: field in WildCat!
      * Fixed the command problem...  Lserv now distinguises between
        SUBJECT: and SUB + SUBSCRIBE lines in the message body.
      * Lserv no longer places the user's name in brackets when sending
        mail - this caused discompatibility with some messages in wcGATE.
      * Lserv now automatically ignores any messages from "MAILER-DAEMON".
      * Lserv now automatically ignored any messages from the WildCat!
        Mail room.
      * Fixed the problem with 'response' messages not being exported by
        wcGATE - me made a mess-up with the message flags.  Thank you to
        Pete Nelson (author of the LISTSERV prog) for sending me the
        correct flags.  This also fixed the prob with messages not being
        private.
      * Lserv now trims data to be put into LISTSERV.DAT (i.e. removes
        any trailing spaces.)
      * New LISTSERV command 'HELP' returns LISTSERV.HLP
      * Users with 'SYSOP' access (in LISTSERV.SYS file) can do a 'LIST
        LISTNAME' to receive the users who are subscribed to LISTNAME.
      * Users can now do a "list global" to return LISTSERV.LST
      * Added ability for GET requests...
      * Fixed the "UNKNOWN: NON-SUBSCRIBER" bug...
      * Fixed a message looping prob where Lserv would start again from
        Message 1 after posting a new message, resulting in a big delay.
      * TOTALLY ridded the program of any possible listname to listname
        problem...  Lserv now strips the first 8 lines of any TO:, FROM:
        or SUBJECT: headers, and auto-ignored messages from a listname.
      * Message Pointer File added - see features.
      * Added ability to LOCK the e-mail conf.
