A number of us have wondered if there were some way of closing the loop
when we send messages to csg-l. Why doesn't the listserv software
include the sender among those to whom it sends the sender's message?
I learned from another listserv group that, in order to be included in
the distribution of one's own messages, one can send a message to the
listserver (the host running the listserv software) with the following
text on the first line:
set csg-l repro
(I have substituted csg-l for the other group's list name, of course.
The default is said to be NO REPRO.)
I sent this message to LISTSERV@VMD.CSO.UIUC.EDU (the BitNet address is
LISTSERV@UIUCVMD.Bitnet). I received a message confirming that the
listserver had accepted the command, and Gary confirms that also. In a
following message, I will tell you whether or not it worked--that is,
whether or not the listserver send me a copy of this message.
