Hello,

      I wrote this one off too soon. This problem still exists
even though I thought it was fixed. While looking at a list serve using
a browser, the link shows:

http://list.odu.edu/listarchives

when I would expect something like:

http://list.odu.edu/listarchives/listname

Anyone come across this one?
