System name: puttanesca
Type and version: KN02ca 7.6G (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type: PMAG-DV
What were you trying to do?
update characteristics of a list: specifically, change
jhbrown-list-3 to aweb in name, and also owner from
USER jhbrown to LIST aweb
What's wrong:
it choked trying to change owner to LIST aweb, saying
no such list by that name existed.
What should have happened:
It should have changed the list name to aweb _before_
it tried to update its ownership to correspond to the
intuition the screen gave by requesting the one piece of
data before the other.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
The manpage has no relevant info.
