The following is an example of an attempt to search the listserver archive for sas-l. The original was correct, or close to correct. Unfortunately, this version has been forwarded (twice now), so that it has lots of extra stuff. In my experience, the stuff starting with: //LOOKJFCB JOB is correct, although the example in the FAQ uses a space between DD and *: //RULES DD * The obvious problem is that the query was sent to sas-l@... rather than to listserv@.... Note that these are two step requests: the first request (shown below) returns the index, then a separate request which must repeat the search can include PRINT requests, using the index numbers from the first request.
