        What nodelist are you talking about?  Just send a message to me:
              charles.raine@fidonet address

        In my manual on page 274, the definition for this error is:
The maximum of 10 WHEN commands were active and an additional WHEN was
issued.  Use a blank WHEN command to clear unused WHEN's and try again.
        Under the definition of the WHEN command, there are 3 types of
when statements.  I have a hunch you may be missing the WHEN (type 3)
which immediately cancels all active WHEN commands.
KG>I wish I could send you the script, but cannot in echo mail. Is the

        Unlisted where?  It's Muddy Waters Computer Society, in
Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
