Subject:      Administrative request: Fix the referencecard
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

I have just had a very frustrating, irritating, and ultimately futile
conversation with the listserver, trying to change my email address.  The
reference card (email listserv@gerry.vanagon.com, 'get refcard') says that
to change one's address, one must do this:

change [listname|*] new@email.address

I do this.  I get a message back saying that I can't do it, until I first
do this:

pw add <password>

Okay, I do this.  I get a message back saying that I have to okay the
password addition.  So I go to the website and do it, and then submit the
email change request again, with:

change * aerowolf@gmail.com <password>

And I get a message saying that 'there is no registration for
aerowolf@gmail.com for any of the lists'.

If mail processing wasn't so slow for me (I don't know if it's on the
listserv side, or on my current email server's side, so I'm not going to
complain... much...), I don't think I'd have a problem... but I have to
send my messages into the great electronic aether, and wait 10 minutes for
any reply.  This entire frustrating experience has just wasted an hour of
my life, and my address has not been changed on the list, and I can't even
figure out how I'm supposed to do it.

jbrush@aros.net says that the 'help' file will help me to do whatever I
need to do... well, I have pored over it and the (allegedly-)comprehensive
reference card, and I still have no idea how I'm supposed to change my
email address.

Could I please get assistance with this issue?

Your assistance is much appreciated.  Thank you.
